I have in my backend a function that receives a multipart/form-data request. The function parses it using multiparty and uploads the content to S3.
const request = require('request')
const multiparty = require('multiparty');
const profile = express.Router();
profile.route('/').post(uploadImageFile);
function uploadImageFile(req, res, next){
form.on('part', function(part) {
let filename = part.filename;
/**upload file to S3 in amazon**/
}
var form = new multiparty.Form();
form.on('error', function(err){
next(err);
});
form.parse(req);
}
Given an image url, I want to create a request which will call the uploadImageFile function. I need to download the url content inside the request and then send this request to uploadImageFile. I have tried something like this but with no success. My problem is that it's not a multipart request.
let download = function(uri, filename, callback) {
request.head(uri, function (err, res, body) {
uploadImageFile(request(uri),res,callback);
})
};
download("https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/photo.jpg", "bla.png",()=>
{
console.log("done")
})
