Node.js: file upload using multer in sails.js

, unfortunately there is no tutorial available for it.
Can anyone provide directions on how to do this in sails.js ??

I also ran into this problem and couldn't find anything on the internet, but after reading the documentation, sails.js
I have a sails.js
way to download the files.
Internally sails.js
uses skipper
upload files and codes are very easy for him.
var uploadFile = req.file('user_picture');
uploadFile.upload({ dirname: filePath }, function onUploadComplete(err, files) {
if (err) return res.serverError(err);
// IF ERROR Return and send 500 error
console.log(files);
});
user_picture
is the name of the variable in your form.
Hope this helps!

bodyParser: (function () {
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
bodyParser.json();
bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true });
return bodyParser();
})(),
fileMiddleware: (function () {
const multer = require('multer');
const upload = multer();
return upload.fields([{ name: 'images' }, { name: 'profile' }, { name: 'manual' }, { name: 'cover' }, { name: 'newsMedia' }, { name: 'vrzip' }]);
})(),
}
};
You can try this. This will replace the skipper.
