Calling All Node.js Developers : Create Generic Upload Controller ⭐ Weekly Issue to Solve

Are you a talented Node.js developer looking for an exciting open source project to collaborate on? Look no further! We are thrilled to invite you to contribute to our cutting-edge ERP CRM project, idurar-erp-crm.

The Issue to Solve : Create New Generic Upload Controller (Node.js)

The specific task at hand involves creating a new generic upload controller within our project. This controller will enhance the project's functionality, enabling seamless file uploads across various modules. By addressing this issue, we can greatly improve user experience and elevate the overall performance of the ERP CRM system.

Problem:
There is a need to create a new generic uploadController.js file with a model. This controller should be located inside the middlewaresControllers directory.

Solution:
To address this problem, the following steps need to be taken:

Create a new model named Upload within the coreModels directory. This model will have the following fields:

  • modelName: The name of the model.
  • fieldId: The ID of the field.
  • enabled: A flag indicating whether the upload is enabled or not.
  • isPublic: A flag indicating whether isPublic or private.
  • removed: A flag indicating whether the upload has been removed or not.
  • path: The path to the uploaded file.

The File should upload to public or private folder , inside modelName folder , the file should have a name of document id of (UploadCollection)

  • Add a new route to the coreRoutes file. This route should handle the URL pattern public/upload/:model/:fieldId.
  • Add a new route to the coreRoutes file. This route should handle the URL pattern private/upload/:model/:fieldId.

By following these steps, a new generic upload controller can be created with the necessary model and route structure.

I'm sorry but turning a PR submission into a competition is not right. There are literally thousands of open source projects that are aching for free contributions without having to compete to do so. You should allow people to claim an issue, have them submit a PR for your review and then work with the dev to make changes to your liking.
