Code

• Backend: i’m using multer store locally the image, it works properly.

import multer from 'multer';
import crypto from 'crypto';
import { extname, resolve } from 'path';

export default  {
    storage: multer.diskStorage({ 
        destination: resolve(__dirname, '..', '..', 'temp', 'uploads' ),
        filename: ( req, file, cb ) => {
            crypto.randomBytes(8, ( err, res ) => {
                if ( err ) return cb(err);

                return cb( null, res.toString( 'hex' ) + extname(file.originalname));
            } )
        },
    })
};

• In routes.js I read the file uploaded at the client.

routes.post('/files', userAuth , upload.single('file'), FileController.store);

• in the FileController I store the path and the name in my database, working either.

 async store( req, res ) {
       const { filename: path, originalname: name } =  req.file;
                

        const file = await File.create({
            name,
            path
        })
        
        const user = await User.update( {avatar_id: file.toJSON().id}, {where: {id: req.userId}} );


        return res.json(file);
    }

React Native Code

I have a function to store the image.

const storeImage = async (response) => {
    console.log(response);

    RNFetchBlob.config({
      trusty: true,
      timeout: 1000,
    })
      .fetch(
        'POST',
        url,
        {
          'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data',
          authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
        },
        [
          {
            name: 'file',
            filename: response.fileName,
            type: response.type,
            data: RNFetchBlob.wrap(response.uri),
          },
        ]
      )
      .then((res) => {
        console.tron.log(res);
      })
      .catch((err) => {
        console.tron.log(err);
      });
  };

And I have a function to call the image picker, and the function to send the image

const showImagePicker = () => {
      console.log(avatarSource);
      console.log(oldAvatarSource);

      ImagePicker.showImagePicker(options, (response) => {
        if (response.didCancel) {
          return null;
        }
        if (response.error) {
          Alert.alert(
            'Erro!',
            'Não consegui recuperar a imagem, tente novamente!'
          );
        } else {
          const source = { uri: response.uri };
          console.log(response); //returns the correct object, with all information
          setAvatarProperties(response);
          setAvatarSource(source);

          /*= ===============SEND IMAGE TO BACKEND================== */
         storeImage (response);
          
        }
      });
    }

What I'm facing

I'm making POST request with RNFetchBlob to my API in backend with nodejs, sometimes it works, sometimes it don't. Sometimes when I upload the image, it is sent to backend fine. But most of the times if I repeat this process without reloading the app, the backend returns me the error:

(node:14568) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot destructure property 'filename' of '(intermediate value)' as it is undefined.
    at update (C:\Users\roble\Documents\programming\apps\embaixada-do-bem-api\src\app\controllers\FileController.js:41:27)
    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:97:5)
(node:14568) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection. This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). To terminate the node process on unhandled promise rejection, use the CLI flag `--unhandled-rejections=strict` (see https://nodejs.org/api/cli.html#cli_unhandled_rejections_mode). (rejection id: 1)
(node:14568) [DEP0018] DeprecationWarning: Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated. In the future, promise rejections that are not handled will terminate the Node.js process with a non-zero exit code. 

And the image is not read by backend until I reload the app and make the request again.

And at the browser(debug mode), I receive the Message some seconds after:

Error: unexpected end of stream
    at VM4 index.bundle:154683
    at MessageQueue.__invokeCallback (VM4 index.bundle:5652)
    at VM4 index.bundle:5356

    at MessageQueue.invokeCallbackAndReturnFlushedQueue (VM4 index.bundle:5355)
    at VM3 debuggerWorker.cff11639.js:4

And in my phone, I receive the messages:

How can I solve that?

I already seen the issue

unexpected end of stream (#419)

and

unexpected end of stream (#399) 

. Did everything i found on the web to solve it, but nothing could.

[Mukthayar1]

@trsp400 hi, did you solve the unexpected end of stream error?

Yes just upgrade you FLIPPER_VERSION=0.52.1 under android/app/gradlew.properties

[Mukthayar1]

Thx @Mukthayar1, changing the FLIPPER_VERSION to 0.52.1 really works!

Thanks
