I am using idrive e2 for storing images in respective folders. i can work it out on localhost where my backend runs on port 3000. in my imguploader function, i set the request url to localhost:3000/api/upload and it works. images do get uploaded to idrive. now that i’m changing to vps, i’m not sure what to put for url.

here’s the call from my imguploader utility in the frontend:

        const formData = new FormData();
        formData.append('file', file);

        const response = await axios.post(`https://icloud.heartstribute.com/api/upload/${userId}/${profileId}`, formData, {
            headers: {
                'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
            }
        });

and then i have idrive.service.js in the backend:

import multer from 'multer';
import { fileURLToPath } from 'url';
import fs from 'fs';
import AWS from 'aws-sdk';
import { Router } from 'express';

const router = Router();

// Set up Multer for file uploads
const upload = multer({ dest: 'uploads/' });

// Get the directory name of the current module
const __filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url);

// Create an S3 client for IDrive Cloud
const endpoint = new AWS.Endpoint('s6k7.ph.idrivee2-37.com');
const s3 = new AWS.S3({
  endpoint: endpoint,
  signatureVersion: 'v4',
  s3ForcePathStyle: true,
  region: 'us-west-2',
  accessKeyId: "access-key",
  secretAccessKey: "secret-key"
});

const publicUrl = `https://b6e5.c19.e2-5.dev/heartstribute.bucket/`;

// CloudWatch client configuration
const cloudWatch = new AWS.CloudWatch({
  endpoint: endpoint,
  region: 'us-west-2', 
});


// Route to handle file upload
router.post('/upload/:userId/:profileId?', upload.single('file'), (req, res) => {
  console.log('Uploading file:', req.file);
  if (!req.file) {
    console.error('No file uploaded.');
    return res.status(400).send('No file uploaded.');
  }
  // get mime type of the file
  const fileType = req.file.mimetype;
  console.log(fileType);

  const fileStream = fs.createReadStream(req.file.path);

  const userId = req.params.userId; // Get user ID from request parameters
  const profileId = req.params.profileId;
  const folderPath = profileId === 'undefined' ? `ProfileManager/${userId}/${profileId}` : `ProfileManager/${userId}`;

  const params = {
    Bucket: 'heartstribute.bucket',
    Key: `${folderPath}/${new Date().toISOString()}-${req.file.originalname}`,
    Body: fileStream,
    ContentType: fileType,
    ACL: 'public-read',
    ContentDisposition: 'inline'
  };

  s3.putObject(params, (err, data) => {
    fs.unlinkSync(req.file.path);
    if (err) {
      console.error('Error uploading file: ', err);
      return res.status(500).send('Error uploading file: ' + err.message);
    }
    const fileUrl = publicUrl + params.Key;
    res.status(200).send({ message: 'File uploaded successfully', url: fileUrl });
  });
});

router.delete('/delete/:key', async (req, res) => {
  const { key } = req.params; 

  const params = {
    Bucket: 'heartstribute.bucket',
    Key: key,
  };

  try {
    await s3.deleteObject(params).promise();
    res.status(200).send({ message: 'File deleted successfully' });
  } catch (err) {
    console.error('Error deleting file: ', err);
    res.status(500).send('Error deleting file: ' + err.message);
  }
});
// Route to get metrics
router.get('/metrics', async (req, res) => {
  const params = {
    Namespace: 'AWS/S3',
    MetricName: 'BucketSizeBytes', 
    Dimensions: [
      {
        Name: 'BucketName',
        Value: 'heartstribute.bucket' 
      },
      {
        Name: 'StorageType',
        Value: 'StandardStorage'
      }
    ],
    StartTime: new Date(Date.now() - 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000), // Last 24 hours
    EndTime: new Date(),
    Period: 86400, // One day in seconds
    Statistics: ['Average']
  };

  try {
    const data = await cloudWatch.getMetricStatistics(params).promise();
    res.status(200).send(data);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error('Error retrieving metrics:', err);
    res.status(500).send('Error retrieving metrics: ' + err.message);
  }
});

router.get("/test", (req, res) => {
  res.send("Hello from the IDrive Cloud API!");
});

export default router;

i have tried changing the url to app.heartstribute but it gives cors error. either way, i’m not sure what to put for the call. can anyone tell me what the request url in my imguploader should be?

Right now, i get this error:

ChooseFile-2e204093.js:3
