NPM and NODE:
I'm using nestJS (@10.3.9), nodeJS (v20.11.1) and npm 10.2.4
[REQUIRED] Step 3: Describe the problem
I am experiencing an issue where attempting to upload files larger than 2GB to Firebase Storage results in a GaxiosError: request to https://storage.googleapis.com/upload/storage/v1/b/[...] failed, reason: write EPROTO.
However, smaller files (e.g., 1.8GB) upload without any issues.
Steps to reproduce:
Attempt to upload a file larger than 2GB using the Firebase Storage SDK in a Node.js application.
Encounter the following error:
Failed to upload file. GaxiosError: request to [https://storage.googleapis.com/upload/storage/v1/b/...] failed, reason: write EPROTO
at Gaxios._request (/path/to/project/node_modules/gaxios/src/gaxios.ts:157:13)
type: 'system',
errno: 'EPROTO',
code: 'EPROTO'
Relevant Code:
Here is a sample of the TypeScript function used for uploading:
import { Stream } from 'stream';
import { getStorageAdmin } from 'path-to-your-storage-admin-utils';
async uploadFileViaStream(fileStream: Stream, path: string): Promise<string> {
console.debug('Uploading file to storage using stream...');
const storage = getStorageAdmin();
const bucket = storage.bucket('voicecheap-c1f14.appspot.com');
const fileRef = bucket.file(path);
const contentType =
path.split('.').pop() === 'mp3' ? 'audio/mpeg' : 'video/mp4';
// Verify if the file already exists
const [exists] = await fileRef.exists();
if (exists) {
console.debug('File already exists. Skipping upload.');
return fileRef.publicUrl();
}
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
fileStream
.pipe(
fileRef.createWriteStream({
contentType: contentType,
public: true,
metadata: {
contentType: contentType,
mimeType: contentType,
type: contentType,
},
}),
)
.on('error', (error) => {
console.error('Failed to upload file.', error);
reject(error);
throw new InternalServerErrorException('Failed to upload file.');
})
.on('finish', async () => {
// Make the file publicly accessible
try {
await fileRef.makePublic();
console.debug('File uploaded and made public.');
resolve(fileRef.publicUrl());
} catch (error) {
console.error('Failed to make the file public.', error);
reject(error);
throw new InternalServerErrorException(
'Failed to make the file public.',
);
}
});
});
}
