Unable to parse files from multipart/form-data request

See original GitHub issue

I am not able to parse files from 'content-type': 'multipart/form-data requests. I am not seeing any example so I am creating this issue.

I tried to parse through ctx.request.files & ctx.request.body.files but both return undefined

I am using: "koa": "^2.3.0" "koa-bodyparser": "4.2.0" node: v7.10.1 npm: 4.2.0
