I am trying to upload and retrieve image to and from mongodb through nodejs and mutter. But i am stuck some where, i hope i am succeeded in uploading image as binary data. but not displaying image in my .ejs file.
Routes file
const express=require('express');
const adminRouter=express.Router();
const Bookdata=require('../model/Bookdata')
const multer = require('multer');
const path = require('path');
var fs = require('fs');
const {
GridFsStorage
} = require("multer-gridfs-storage");
require("dotenv")
.config();
// set up multer for storing uploaded files
const storage=multer.diskStorage({
//destination for files
destination:function(request,file,callback){
callback(null,'../LibraryApps/public/uploads/images');
},
//add back the extensions
filename:function(request,file, callback){
callback(null,file.fieldname Date.now() path.extname(file.originalname));
}
})
//upload parameters for mutter
const upload = multer({
storage: storage,
limits:{
fileSize: 1000000
},
fileFilter:function(req,file,callback){
checkFileType(file, callback);
}
});
//Check file type
function checkFileType(file, callback){
// allowed extension
const filetypes = /jpeg|jpg|png|gif/;
//check extension
const extname=filetypes.test(path.extname(file.originalname).toLowerCase());
//check mime
const mimetype=filetypes.test(file.mimetype);
if(mimetype&&extname){
return callback(null, true);
}else{
callback('Error: Images only');
}
}
var imgModel = require('../model/Bookdata');
function router(nav){
adminRouter.get('/',function(req,res){
imgModel.find({}, (err, items) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
res.status(500).send('An error occurred', err);
}
else {
//res.render('imagesPage', { items: items });
res.render('addBook',{
nav,
title:'Library'
})
}
});
})
adminRouter.post('/add',upload.single(`image`), function(req,res){
// res.send("Hey I am Added");
console.log(req.file);
var item={
title: req.body.title,
author: req.body.author,
genre: req.body.genre,
//image: req.file.image,
image: {
data: fs.readFileSync(path.join('../LibraryApps/public/uploads/images/' req.file.filename)),
contentType: 'image/png'
}
}
imgModel.create(item, (err, item) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
}
else {
var book=Bookdata(item);
book.save();
res.redirect('/books');
}
});
});
return adminRouter;
}
module.exports=router;
my model file
//Accessing Mongose package
const mongoose=require('mongoose');
//Database connection
// mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/library');
mongoose.connect('mongodb....');
//Schema definition
const Schema= mongoose.Schema;
const BookSchema=new Schema({
title: String,
author: String,
genre: String,
// image: String,
image:{
data: Buffer,
contentType: String
}
});
//Model creation
var Bookdata= mongoose.model('bookdata',BookSchema);
module.exports=Bookdata;
and this is my .ejs file
<%for(i=0;i<books.length;i ){%>
<div >
<br>
<div >
<a href="#">
<img src="data:<%=books[i].image.contentType%>;base64,{Buffer.from('<%=books[i].image.data%>','binary').toString('base64')}" style="width:100px;height:100px" >
</a>
</div>
my get function
booksRouter.get('/',function(req,res){
Bookdata.find()
.then(function(books){
res.render("books",{
nav,
title:"Library App",
books
});
})
});

CodePudding user response:
in the template, just add the properties:
edit: Buffer.from
is not needed, as it's already a buffer:
with for loop:
<%for(i=0;i<books.length;i ){%>
<div >
<br>
<div >
<a href="#">
<img src="data:<%=books[i].image.contentType%>;base64,<%=books[i].image.data.toString('base64')%>" style="width:100px;height:100px" >
