How I can limit file size?
i use [.fields(fields)] for upload image. i need limit file size of each fields.
example upload.fields([{ name: 'avatar', maxCount: 1, name:'avatar2', maxCount: 2 }] i need limit file size of avatar (1MB) i need limit file size of avatar2 (5MB)
Can I do it? How? thank you
you can do it as follow: multer({ storage: storage, limits:{ fileSize:1000 //size of u file }, fileFilter:fileFilter });
i need limit file size of each fields.
I don't think that this use case is solved yet...
There still needs to be a way to provide individual limits for when handling multiple form fields with different fieldnames.
My suggestion:
limits could also take a function as well as an object (default). This function should be called internally with (fieldname, cb) args. The cb function needs to be called with a valid limits object. Doing so enables setting custom limits by reading fieldname.
You test on this option:
var upload = multer({
...
limits: { fileSize: settings.maxSizeUpload }, //In settings.maxSizeUpload: 1 * 1024 * 1024 // 1MB
...
}).fields([{ name: 'avatar', maxCount: 1 }, { name: 'avatar2', maxCount: 2 }]);
In Router.post:
upload(req, res, function(err) {
if (err) {
//Handle error
return res.end("Something went wrong!" + err);
}
res.redirect('/users/dashboard');
});
goodluck!
@2pay OP's question is about having a different size limit for each field. Your suggestion doesn't solve that.
@TusharRoy23 Thank you for taking the time to post (while keeping it illegible). However, it doesn't solve the OP's question. Your piece of code shows how to set up a filter by file-type (MIME-type).
The OP's question is regarding limiting the file size of the valid file(s) that have already passed the fileFilter function.

2021 and still no solution for this? There are two answers and both are wrong.
@mimoid-prog there is size of file in req.rawHeaders(it a array) in my request last item is size of file so I used (req.rawHeaders.slice(-1)[0]) ,after that I write a logic in fileFilter based on type file, It's work to me, multer should be .any
const multer = require('multer');
const { v4: uuid } = require("uuid");
const TYPE_IMAGE = {
'image/png': 'png',
'image/jpeg': 'jpeg',
'image/jpg': 'jpg'
};
const TYPE_File = {
'application/pdf': 'pdf',
};
const fileUpload =
multer({
limits: 500000,
storage: multer.diskStorage({
destination: (req, file, cb) => {
cb(null, 'uploads/images');
},
filename: (req, file, cb) => {
const ext = (TYPE_IMAGE[file.mimetype]) ? TYPE_IMAGE[file.mimetype] : TYPE_File[file.mimetype];
cb(null, uuid() + '.' + ext);
}
}),
fileFilter: (req, file, cb) => {
let size = +req.rawHeaders.slice(-1)[0]
let isValid =false;
if(!!TYPE_IMAGE[file.mimetype] && size < 4 * 1024 * 1024 ){
isValid = true
}
if(!!TYPE_File[file.mimetype] && size < 1 * 1024 * 1024 ){
isValid = true
}
let error = isValid ? null : new Error('Invalid mime type!');
cb(error, isValid);
}
}).any();
module.exports = fileUpload;
