Investigate streaming or large file upload
ekryski opened this issue · comments
Take a read through the guide https://docs.feathersjs.com/guides/file-uploading.html.
However, we may be able to do something over sockets that doesn't feel as hacky.
I'm investigating on file uploads in feathers and authorizing access to the uploaded files - and came across the issue with base64.
There is a large ecosystem here: http://tus.io/
There are many client libs supporting resumable uploads. And there's a nodejs drop-in server and a standalone upload "receiver" server in go for bigger needs.
We have that running in production with large file uploads at vinubis.com (video editing) and it runs quite well.
So maybe this could fit in here as good as passport for auth - not reinventing the wheel?
Just wanted to give the pointer, try it if it helps. For my current project I only need small avatar pics, so that's not actually an issue for me :)
