I am trying to upload a file to my node js server using express. Here is my nodejs code:
var express=require('express');
var app=express();
var fs=require('fs');
var sys=require('sys');
app.listen(8080);
app.get('/',function(req,res){
fs.readFile('upload.html',function (err, data){
res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/html','Content-Length':data.length});
res.write(data);
res.end();
});
});
app.post('/upload',function(req,res)
{
console.log(req.files);
fs.readFile(req.files.displayImage.path, function (err, data) {
// ...
var newPath = __dirname;
fs.writeFile(newPath, data, function (err) {
res.redirect("back");
});
});
});
My upload.html file:
<html>
<head>
<title>Upload Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="uploadForm"
enctype="multipart/form-data"
action="/upload"
method="post">
<input type="file" id="userPhotoInput" name="displayImage" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
<span id="status" />
<img id="uploadedImage" />
</body>
</html>
I am getting an error that the req.files is undefined. What could be wrong? The file upload is also not working.
