Follow this (http://www.hacksparrow.com/handle-file-uploads-in-express-node-js.html) to upload an image to server in nodejs.

Once you followed. It will return response like this

File uploaded to: ./public/images/85d15c2f7e812a03faa44bdef0ce41f5.png - 278070 bytes

The response shows that your image is stored in the public/images directory

Image Name : 85d15c2f7e812a03faa44bdef0ce41f5.png

Image Path : ./public/images/85d15c2f7e812a03faa44bdef0ce41f5.png

You can load the image with the server ip by removing the public from the URL. Because we can directly access the content from the public directory without specifying public.

So the following link is enough to load the image from the URL.

your-local-ip:port/images/85d15c2f7e812a03faa44bdef0ce41f5.png

eg:

http://localhost:3000/images/85d15c2f7e812a03faa44bdef0ce41f5.png
