README
`express-fileforge` is a file upload utility for Express.js that simplifies file handling. It provides a convenient way to save files to the server and manage file storage paths. This package is designed to be easy to use and integrate seamlessly with your Express.js applications.
```bash
npm install express-fileforge
```
## Express JS Example
```javascript
const express = require('express');
const fileForge = require('express-fileforge');
const path = require('path');
const app = express();
// Your route for file upload
app.post('/upload', async function (req, res) {
try {
// Upload file
let uploadedFile = await fileForge.saveFile(req, path.resolve(__dirname),'myFiles', 'abc.pdf');
res.end(`File uploaded successfully: ${uploadedFile}`);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
res.status(500).end('Internal Server Error');
}
});
// Route for file deletion
app.delete('/delete/:fileName', async function (req, res) {
try {
// File name from the URL parameter
const fileName = req.params.fileName;
// Delete the specified file
const isDeleted = await fileForge.deleteFile(path.resolve(__dirname),'myFiles', fileName);
if (isDeleted) {
res.end(`File deleted successfully: ${fileName}`);
} else {
res.status(404).end(`File not found: ${fileName}`);
}
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
res.status(500).end('Internal Server Error');
}
});
// Start the server
app.listen(5050, function () {
console.log('Server Run Success');
});
```
## How To Upload Using Fetch
```javascript
async function uploadFile() {
try {
var formdata = new FormData();
formdata.append("files", fileInput.files[0]);
var requestOptions = {
method: 'POST',
body: formdata,
redirect: 'follow',
};
const response = await fetch("http://localhost:5050/uploads", requestOptions);
const result = await response.text();
console.log(result);
} catch (error) {
console.log('error', error);
}
}
// Call the function
uploadFile();
```
## How To Upload Using Axios
```javascript
async function uploadFile() {
try {
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append("files", fileInput.files[0]);
const response = await axios.post("http://localhost:5050/uploads", formData, {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data',
},
});
console.log(response.data);
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error:', error);
}
}
// Call the function
uploadFile();
```
## How To Delete Using Fetch
```javascript
const deleteFile = async () => {
const FileName = "abc.pdf";
const requestOptions = {method: 'DELETE'};
try {
const response = await fetch(`http://localhost:5050/delete/${FileName}`, requestOptions);
if (!response.ok) {
throw new Error(`HTTP error! Status: ${response.status}`);
}
const result = await response.text();
console.log(result);
} catch (error) {
console.log('error', error);
}
};
// Call the async function
deleteFile();
```
## How To Delete Using Axios
```javascript
const deleteFile = async () => {
const FileName = "abc.pdf";
try {
const response = await axios.delete(`http://localhost:5050/delete/${FileName}`);
console.log(response.data);
} catch (error) {
console.log('error', error.message);
}
};
// Call the async function
deleteFile();
