I want to upload a thumbnail to viemo api , and based on Vimeo doc, I must include the thumbnail file as binary data in the request body, I have to upload the thumbnail from the client side "fontend" and will send the request from the rest-api "backend" the problem is my rest-api can't receive the binary data, properly because I'm using express.js, is there any way to handle the binary data in the backend.
the steps as following:
client side sent thumbnail data => backend receive the data through the request body and send it to => endpoint
client side request
const handleSubmit = (event) => {
event.preventDefault();
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('selectedFile', new Blob([selectedFile], { type: 'application/json' }));
formData.append('uploadLink', uploadLink);
const headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
Accept: 'application/vnd.vimeo.*+json;version=3.4',
};
try {
axios
.post(`${backendPostPath}/thumbnail-upload`, formData, {
headers,
})
.then((response) => {
applyThumbnial();
console.log(`${uploadLink}link for upload`);
});
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
}
};
backend request can't receive the body request of frontend post as binary data,
const ThumbnailUpload = async (req, res) => {
const { uploadLink } = req.body;
const { selectedFile } = req.body;
console.log(uploadLink);
const clientServerOptions = {
uri: `${uploadLink}`,
encoding: null,
body: JSON.stringify({
name: uploadLink,
file: selectedFile,
}),
method: 'PUT',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
Accept: 'application/vnd.vimeo.*+json;version=3.4',
Authorization: getVimeoAuthorization(),
},
};
request(clientServerOptions, function (error, response) {
if (error) {
res.send(error);
} else {
const body = JSON.parse(response.body);
res.send(body);
}
});
};
is there any way to make the backend request body fetch the binary data, as I getting the data as "undefined"
Sorry for late update, I solved this issue by using the same put request form the client side, as the put request don't require Vimeo access token, so you can use the same put request i mentioned above, and remove authentication from the header, like following
const handleSubmit = (event) => {
event.preventDefault();
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('selectedFile', new Blob([selectedFile], { type: 'image/jpg, image/png' }));
// formData.append('uploadLink', uploadLink);
const headers = {
'Content-Type': 'image/jpg, image/png',
Accept: 'application/vnd.vimeo.*+json;version=3.4',
};
try {
axios
.put(`${uploadLink}`, formData, {
headers,
})
.then((response) => {
console.log(`${uploadLink}link for upload`);
});
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
}
};
