Python and Node : Image Upload
I'm pretty new to Python and Node, I'm attempting to do a simple image upload. Python for the client side and Node for the server side. The image is uploaded and looks to be the correct size, but when I try to open or preview the image I get a prompt saying the following :
"The file could not be opened . It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognise"
NOTE* I was able to get the upload to work using multer, see my posted answer. However , I would still I like to figure out why image open or image preview fails.
Client code (test locally) :
import requests
url = "http://localhost:3000/upload"
image = open('test1.jpg','rb').read()
file = {'file': image}
r = requests.post(url, files=file)
print(r.status_code)
print(r.text)
Server code snippet :
const Fs = require('fs')
...
...
router.post('/upload', (req, res) =>{
var data = '';
req.setEncoding('binary');
req.on('data', function(chunk) {
data += chunk;
});
req.on('end', function(){
Fs.writeFile("tester.jpg", data, 'binary', function(err) {
if(err) throw err
res.send("Image uploaded ...");
});
})
})

I was able to sort it out using multer : npm multer
var Storage = multer.diskStorage({
destination: function(req, file, callback) {
callback(null, "./images");
},
filename: function(req, file, callback) {
callback(null, file.fieldname + "_" + Date.now() + "_" + file.originalname);
}
});
var upload = multer({
storage: Storage
}).single('file');
router.post('/upload', (req, res) =>{
console.log("upload ...");
upload(req, res, (err) =>{
if(err){
console.log(err);
res.send("Failed")
}
else{
console.log(req.file);
res.send("Uploaded ...");
}
});
})
