Multer

app.use(express.static('public')); 

app.use('/scripts', express.static(`${__dirname}/node_modules/`));

app.use(bodyParser.json({limit: '50mb'}))

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({limit: '50mb', extended: false}))

// Redirect all traffic to index.html

app.get('/',function (req, res){ 

res.sendFile(`${__dirname}/public/index.html`)

});

app.post('/test', function(req, res){

   var upload = multer({

        storage: multer.memoryStorage()

    }).single('file')

    upload(req, res, function(err) {

        var buffer = req.file.buffer;

       // var magic = buffer.toString('hex', 0, 4)

        var filename = req.file.fieldname + '-' + Date.now() + path.extname(req.file.originalname)

            fs.writeFile('./uploads/' + filename, buffer, 'binary', function(err) {

                if (err) throw err

                res.send('File is uploaded')

            })

        /* } else {

            res.end('File is no valid')

        } */

    })

});
