Website Project Background
Currently, I am working on a simple website where users can update their pictures. To achieve this functionality, I am utilizing the Multer library along with Express in Typescript.
Encountered Issue
I am facing a challenge regarding how to access the File type of Multer from its namespace. This is crucial for my project but I am unsure of the correct approach to take.
declare global {
namespace Express {
interface Request {
file: Multer.File;
files: {
[fieldname: string]: Multer.File[];
} | Multer.File[];
}
namespace Multer {
interface File {
/** Field name specified in the form */
fieldname: string;
...
}
The ultimate goal I aim to achieve is as follows:
app.post('/admin/uploads', async (req, res) => {
let file: Multer.File = req.files.myFile;
console.log(file.filename);
....
}
Any guidance on how to properly access the Multer namespace would be greatly appreciated.
