upload file with node-fetch & form-data

upload.js

const fetch = require('node-fetch')
const FormData = require('form-data')

const pdfPath = '/path/to/pdfFile'

async function upload () {
  const formData = new FormData()
  formData.append('name', 'xxx')
  formData.append('filename', 'xxxxxxxx.pdf')
  formData.append('file', fs.readFileSync(pdfPath), {
    filename: 'xxxxxxxx.pdf',
    contentType: 'application/pdf'
  })

  const result = await fetch(
    `http://your-api-url/upload`,
    { method: 'post', body: formData }
  ).then(res => res.json())
  
  return result
}

Thank you so much! I've spent so long trying to do this, I owe you one!

you are angel

Thanks for sharing this!

On fetch I get an error that fetch failed with cause. " cause: TypeError: object2 is not iterable". I am writing the file size in bytes to the console and it is just about the size as the file on disk so the readFileSync seems OK.

Many thanks for any guidance in advance.
