How do you handle file uploads in Node.js REST APIs?
Short answer: pp.post('/upload', upload.single('file'), (req, res) => { res.send('File uploaded'); }); pp.post('/upload', upload.single('file'), (req, res) => { res.send('File uploaded'); }); pp.post('/upload', upload.single('file'), (req, res) => { res.send('File uploaded'); }); pp.post('/upload', upload.single('file'), (req, res) => { res.send('File uploaded'); });
Real-world example (ShopNest)
A ShopNest BFF in Node.js aggregates catalog and price APIs for the React storefront.
