omg this is the best upload tutorial i have seen. trust me, i have scoured through youtube for a lot of simple examples but i enjoyed the whole video. thanks for making this!
I can't thank you enough This really helped me with my project For some reason i haven't seen anyone in udemy explaining how to upload files with node JS ,and the other youtube videos don't explain it well but this turtorial really helped Thanks a lot
Sir Thank you very much, you are really the best! I have watched a 2 hours Tutorial about uploading files and then send them via Email without any success. But here in your Video after 10 Minutes I have got the way how to do it! I really appreciate that and want to Thank you a lot sir!
Probably due to older node/express version. need to replace with app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, "public"))); and import: const path = require('path')
thanks for the video. thit is a practical solution for file upload to s3 as we can use our server for authentication. However I have a question, does the file actually uploads to our server and then from our server to s3, or does it go directly from client to s3? I am asking because the former setup in fact doubles the traffic of our server. thanks.
If you're using S3 then the file is first temporarily uploaded to the server (held in tmp or wherever your server / backend has this setup) and then this is transferred to S3 with your Node / backend code. It does not go directly from the client as your code to publish to S3 is running on your server! I'm not sure about the doubling of traffic however - you've got data coming in (the file upload) and data going out (the transfer to S3). Depending on where you're hosting this, it shouldn't be a problem and is quite normal.
i was wondering can't u just use vanilla node js without all these packages to upload and why is it so cumbersome in node to upload a file can't u use upload a file like we would in regualr js and send to a server ?

Hi, is it possible to upload multiple files in multiple fields such that each field can only upload one file and the order of the files to be uploaded matters (such as the first file is English and the other is the translated language)?
Hi David, this should be possible but it might require a little bit of structuring of the front-end application that the user is uploading through. Were you looking to upload the files at the same time?
I think you pass it to the constructor of AWS.credentials() (see docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/Credentials.html#constructor-property) but please don't leave them in your code!

Yall obsessed with the form tag. Try a tutorial with an input type file WITHOUT form tag sometime. The problem with this is that the page refreshes. I used that 20 years ago.
