javascript - req.body is Empty on angular file-upload, node js -

so i've been working on uploading excel file save database. form.

<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">     <label class="uk-form-file md-btn md-btn-primary" for="user_upload">upload file</label>         <input              style="display:none;"             type="file"              ngf-select              ng-model="user_datasource"              name="userdatasource_upload"              id="userdatasource_upload"             accept=".xlsx,.xls,.csv"             ngf-max-size="20mb"              fd-input             ng-change="upload"/>  </form> 

this controller handles upload

$scope.upload = function() {   upload.upload({       url: '/api/sr/user_upload',       data: {          username: 'test',          file: file_upload       }   }).then(function(response) {      console.log(response);   });       } 

and node

app.use(function(req, res, next) {     res.setheader("access-control-allow-methods", "post, put, options, delete, get");     res.header("access-control-allow-origin", "http://127.0.0.1:3000");     res.header("access-control-allow-headers", "origin, x-requested-with, content-type, accept");     next(); });  app.use(bodyparser.json()); app.use(bodyparser.urlencoded({     extended: true }));  app.post('/api/sr/user_upload',function(req, res) {   console.log('============================================,');   console.log(req); });  

so can see. include everything. body-parser, setheader etc. no luck. req.body empty. going upload file save database username. after username im going use multer please me out! thanks!

as using multer on basis of writing answer

the multer saves files first, , writes req remaining part of form - can hidden field.

so need rest data in upload function this

upload(req, res, function(err) {     if (err) {         console.log(err);         return res.end('error');     } else {         console.log(req.body);         req.files.foreach(function(item) {             console.log(item);             // move file destination         });         res.end('file uploaded destination');     } }); 

hope work you
