Node/Multer Get Filename

Question

I am using the following to upload files to a directory via Multer. It works great, but I need to perform some actions after upload that require the name of the file I just post

Answer 1

    app.post('/multer', upload.single('file'), function(req, res) {
  // Need full filename created here
const file = req.file
if (!file) {
    const error = new Error('Please upload a file')
    error.httpStatusCode = 400
    return next(error)
  }
 res.send(file) #Here
});

You need recover file from this line

 res.send(file)

using file.filename This output sample

{
  "fieldname": "myFile",
  "originalname": "isc te esta esperando.jpg",
  "encoding": "7bit",
  "mimetype": "image/jpeg",
  "destination": "uploads",
  "filename": "myFile-1602293858948.eaf",
  "path": "uploads/myFile-1602293858948.eaf",
  "size": 297720
}
