An Express middleware of Formidable that just works.
Express is a fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for Node.js.
Formidable is a Node.js module
for parsing form data, including multipart/form-data file upload.
So, express-formidable is something like a bridge between them,
specifically an Express middleware implementation of Formidable.
It aims to just work.
npm install express-formidable
const express = require('express');
const formidable = require('express-formidable');
var app = express();
app.use(formidable());
app.post('/upload', (req, res) => {
req.fields; // contains non-file fields
req.files; // contains files
});And that's it.
express-formidable can basically parse form types Formidable can handle,
including application/x-www-form-urlencoded, application/json, and
multipart/form-data.
app.use(formidable(opts));opts are options which can be set to form in Formidable. For example:
app.use(formidable({
encoding: 'utf-8',
uploadDir: '/my/dir',
multiples: true, // req.files to be arrays of files
});For the detail, please refer to the Formidable API.
