diskStorage not a function

See original GitHub issue

Hi, i have following code

var express = require('express');        // call express
var app = express();
var multer  = require('multer');

var storage = multer.diskStorage({
  destination: function (req, file, cb) {
    cb(null, '/software/')
  },
  filename: function (req, file, cb) {
    cb(null, 'test.tar.gz')
  }
})

var upload = multer({ storage: storage })

.....

This gives me following error while compiling:

var storage=multer.diskStorage({
                   ^

TypeError: multer.diskStorage is not a function
    at Object.<anonymous> (D:\Harvester\proxy\proxy.js:34:20)
    at Module._compile (module.js:425:26)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:432:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:356:32)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:311:12)
    at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:457:10)
    at startup (node.js:136:18)
    at node.js:972:3

Tried all variations but it gives me always the same error. Using node 5.0

Any idea??
