Example 1: how to set file type and size in multer
var multer = require('multer')
var upload = multer().single('avatar')
app.post('/profile', function (req, res) {
upload(req, res, function (err) {
if (err instanceof multer.MulterError) {
// A Multer error occurred when uploading.
} else if (err) {
// An unknown error occurred when uploading.
}
// Everything went fine.
})

const { extname, resolve } = require('path')
const diskStorage = multer.diskStorage({
destination: (req, file, done) => {
if (!file) return done(new Error('Upload file error'), null)
return done(null, resolve(process.cwd(), 'src/images'))
},
filename: (req, file, done) => {
if (file) {
const imagePattern = /(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|svg)/gi
const mathExt = extname(file.originalname).replace('.', '')
if (!imagePattern.test(mathExt)) {
return new TypeError('File format is not valid')
}
req.file = file.originalname
return done(null, file.originalname)
}
}
