multer-storage-pkgcloud

This is a multer storage plugin to upload files into a from pkgcloud supported cloud object storage.

It is just a storage plugin for multer. So you will need multer as well as pkgcloud to use this plugin. Please have a look at these two awesome projects:

• multer
• pkgcloud

IMPORTANT: Multer version >= 1.0.0 required!

API

Installation

$ npm install multer-storage-pkgcloud

NPM: multer-storage-pkgcloud

Usage

Get the dependencies and create a pkgcloud client.

1var express = require('express')
2var multer  = require('multer')
3var pkgcloud = require('pkgcloud')
4var pkgcloudStorage = require('multer-storage-pkgcloud')
5
6var client = pkgcloud.storage.createClient({ /* pkgcloud config object */ })
7// See pkgcloud documentation for more information

By default, file are stored in container named uploads and the name of the file is the file.originalname.

• options: container: Overwrite the container name.
• options: destination: Destination function which will be called for each file-upload to rename the container and/or the remote file. See documentation of multer to get more information about the file object. The object passed to the callback cb is a option object from pkgcloud. See pkgcloud/pkgcloud#file.

1var storage = pkgcloudStorage({
2  client: client,
3  destination: function (req, file, cb) {
4    cb(null, {
5      container: 'myContainer',
6      remote: 'some/path/' + file.originalname
7    })
8  }
9})

Then use the multer middleware in your express app. See multer for more detailed usage information of upload.

1var app = express();
2
3var upload = multer({
4  storage: storage
5});
6
7app.use('/', upload.single('fieldname1'));
8app.use('/', upload.array('fieldname2', 12));
