Callback never called when parsing Meteor-http-methods request ?

[hems]

I'm trying to integrate formidable with Meteor-http-methods but the parse callback isn't firing.

I suspect this.request isn't exactly the request formidable is waiting for?

formidable = require('formidable')

HTTP.methods({
  '/myhook': function(data) {
    console.log( "hook called" );
    var form = new formidable.IncomingForm();
    form.parse(this.request, function(error, fields, files) {
      console.log( "parse finished" );
      console.log(arguments);
    });
  }
});

Yea, probably. Can you try to add error event handler?

var form = new formidable.IncomingForm()
form.once('error', console.log)
form.parse(this.request, function(error, fields, files) {
    console.log( "parse finished" );
    console.log(arguments);
});

side note: Why you use some shitty shit that even don't have tests and the code is awful? ;d

@tunnckoCore are you talking about meteor?

[tunnckoCore]

@hems sorry for my previous comment. No, I'm talking about Meteor-http-methods.

@tunnckoCore is just the first thing that came up on my google search and it worked, what would you recommend? i don't mind changing for something better, surely it won't take a long time (( :

[hems]

@tunnckoCore no need to apologize everybody is entitled to exercise their blue monday

[tunnckoCore]

what would you recommend?

Don't know, I can't recommend something, because I'm not meteor user.

Let's focus on https://github.com/felixge/node-formidable/issues/401#issuecomment-272758675

I had same issue on Meteor Galaxy, the problem is the upload path. This fixed it for me var form = new formidable.IncomingForm({ uploadDir: '/tmp' });

nice catch @guidouil !

Unfortunately, i have no means of testing this code anymore but i'll close the issue as @guidouil is reporting to have found the problem
