Cannot open downloaded file

Here’s the case:

var supertest = require('supertest');
var fs = require('fs');
var express = require('express');
var app = express();

app.get('/image', function (req, res) {
  fs.createReadStream('src/test/expected/igloo.jpg').pipe(res);
})

var request = supertest(app);

request.get('/image')
  .end(function(err, res) {
    fs.writeFileSync('/tmp/test_superagent', res.text)
    console.log('end!', res)
  })

I’d like to save the image in my tmp directory. The problem is that I can’t open it. I try different encoding but the result is always the same. Is there anything I miss?

not sure but try to add .buffer() to your request chain like so:

request.get(...).buffer().end(fn)

FYI. Fixed the test and the parser and sent a pull request.
