why image is saving as text file in node js - node.js

Question

Here i'm trying to save the image in database using multer but image type is saving as a text format but not in .png , .jpeg, .jpg format,
PLease help me where i'm doing wrong thanks in advance
Schema:-
module.exports = mongoose => {
const Role = mongoose.model(
"role",
mongoose.Schema(
{
roleType : { type:String },
image: { type: String,
data: Buffer}
}
)
);
return Role;
};
controller (Creating an instance):-
exports.addRoleFields = async (req, res) => {
const rolesList = new Role ({
roleType : req.body.roleType,
roleImg : req.file.path,
});
rolesList
.save(rolesList)
.then(data => {
res.status(200).send({ data, statusCode: "200" });
})
.catch(err => {
res.status(500).send({
message: err.message || "Some error occurred while creating.",
statusCode: "500"
});
})
}
}
routes:-
module.exports = app => {
const multer = require("multer"),
storage = multer.diskStorage({
destination: function(req, file, cb) {
cb(null, 'uploads')
},
filename: function(req, file, cb) {
cb(null, file.fieldname + '-' + Date.now())
}
})
const uploadImg = multer({storage: storage}).single('image');
const roles = require("../controllers/roles.js");
var router = require("express").Router();
router.post("/addRole", uploadImg , roles.addRoleFields);
app.use('/api/roles', router);
};

Answer 1

I simply changed this
filename: function(req, file, cb) {
cb(null, file.fieldname + '-' + Date.now())
}
to
filename: function (req, file, cb) {
cb(null, file.originalname);
}
its working and saving the file

try this for mongodb client
const storage = multer.diskStorage({
destination: async function (req, file, cb) {
let path = 'uploads/' + req.body.path;
if (!fs.existsSync(path)) {
fs.mkdirSync(path, { recursive: true }, (err) => {
if (err) throw err;
});
}
await cb(null, path);
},
filename: function (req, file, cb) {
cb(null, req.body.filename)
}
});
var upload = multer({ storage: storage })
const router = express.Router();
// Upload Image
router.post("/upload", upload.single('image'), (req, res, next) => {
return res.json({
image: req.file.path
});
});
in this upload.single('image'), file should be the name in which formdata carries the file.
in your case,
router.post("/addRole", uploadImg('image'), (req, res)=>{
});

mongoose model
const imgSave = new mongoose.Schema({
img:{
data: Buffer,
contentType: String
}
});
