Describe the Bug

Simply the API to upload the file stopped working. The request hangs and there is no response

The request does not reach the breakpoint on the API line 81 if (!request.file) {

when I remove the form-data params the API is called and of course, I get File was not provided

Expected Behavior

It should just work like before

To Reproduce

To reproduce here the API upload.tsx

/* eslint-disable unicorn/no-null */
import * as mime from 'mime-types'
import multer from 'multer'
import { NextApiRequest, NextApiResponse } from 'next'

export const config = {
  api: {
    bodyParser: false, // Disallow body parsing, consume as stream
  },
}

interface NextApiRequestExtended extends NextApiRequest {
  file: any
  files: any
}

const upload = multer({
  storage: multer.diskStorage({
    destination: (request, file, callback) => {
      const { isProjectPic } = request.query
      const destinationPath =
        isProjectPic === 'true'
          ? `./public/uploads/project`
          : `./public/uploads/profile`
      callback(null, destinationPath)
    },
    filename: (request, file, callback) => {
      const extension = mime.extension(file.mimetype)
      if (typeof extension === `string`) {
        const fileNames = file.originalname.split('.', 1)
        const { userId } = request.query
        if (fileNames.length > 0) {
          const fileName = fileNames[0]
            .toLowerCase()
            .replace(/\s/g, '-')
            // eslint-disable-next-line unicorn/prefer-spread
            .concat('-', userId ? (userId as string) : '', '.', extension)
          callback(null, fileName)
        }
      }
      callback(null, file.originalname)
    },
  }),
  // 1MB
  limits: { fileSize: 1 * 1024 * 1024 },
  fileFilter: (request, file, callback) => {
    if (
      file.mimetype === 'image/png' ||
      file.mimetype === 'image/jpg' ||
      file.mimetype === 'image/jpeg'
    ) {
      callback(null, true)
    } else {
      return callback(new Error('Invalid mime type'))
    }
  },
})

// Helper method to wait for a middleware to execute before continuing
// And to throw an error when an error happens in a middleware
function runMiddleware(
  request: NextApiRequestExtended,
  response: NextApiResponse,
  function_: any,
) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    function_(request, response, (result: any) => {
      if (result instanceof Error) {
        return reject(result)
      }

      return resolve(result)
    })
  })
}
const handler = async (
  request: NextApiRequestExtended,
  response: NextApiResponse,
) => {
  try {
    await runMiddleware(request, response, upload.single('image-upload'))
    if (!request.file) {
      return response.status(404).end('File was not provided')
    }
    const file = request.file
    return response.status(200).send({
      filename: file.filename,
      size: file.size,
      path: file.path,
    })
  } catch (error: any) {
    return response.status(404).end(error.message)
  }
}
export default handler

[remorses]

I have the same problem with a POST request with a payload of 50Kb

Edit: Fixed skipping api requests in middleware, you can add the following code to middleware.js

export const config = {
    matcher: '/((?!api\/).*)',
}
