How to upload file type in nodejs googleapis (in express multer)

I have a problem in uploding pdf file from from fontend in Nodejs so the problem is how to convert file type to correct form to upload to google drive

my file type is like this

{ fieldname: ‘file’, originalname: ‘test.pdf’, encoding: ‘7bit’, mimetype: ‘application/pdf’, buffer: <Buffer 25 50 44 46 2d 31 2e 34 0a 25 20 e2 e3 cf d3 0a 34 0a 30 0a 6f 62 6a 0a 3c 3c 0a 2f 54 79 70 65 0a 2f 43 61 74 61 6c 6f 67 0a 2f 4e 61 6d 65 73 0a 3c … >, size: 150251 }

and my code is like this ` const {google} = require(‘googleapis’) const drive = google.drive(‘v3’)

const app = express()
const upload = multer()

    app.post(
      'test-upload-pdf-file',
      upload.single('file'),
      (req, res, next) => {
        drive.files.create({
           resource: { mimeType: 'application/pdf'},
           media: {mimeType: 'application/pdf', body: req.file.buffer},
           fields: 'id'
       }, function (err, file) {

      }
    )`

Hi, @Thammawat I did it the following way. It worked for me. Let me know if it works for you.

app.post('/upload', upload.single('my file'), (req, res, next) => {
    let stream = require('stream');
    let fileObject = req.file;
    let bufferStream = new stream.PassThrough();
    bufferStream.end(fileObject.buffer);
    google.drive({ version: 'v3', auth: oauth2Client })
        .files.create({
            media: {
                mimeType: 'application/pdf',
                body: bufferStream
            },
            'requestBody': {
                'name': 'test.pdf',
                 mimeType: 'application/pdf',
            },
            fields: 'id',
        }).then(function (resp) {
            console.log(resp,'resp');
        }).catch(function (error) {
            console.log(error);
        })
    res.send(`File uploaded`);
});
