But before continuing you need to create a cloudinary account. If you don't have an account yet, click here and follow all the steps.

To start using Filesrocket it is necessary to install the dependencies.

npm i express filesrocket filesrocket-cloudinary

npm i @types/express -D

Create src/index.ts file and copy the following content

import express from "express";

import { Filesrocket } from "filesrocket";
import { CloudinaryFileService } from "filesrocket-cloudinary";

// Initialize Filesrocket
const filesrocket = new Filesrocket();

// Setting service.
const service = new CloudinaryFileService({
  pagination: { default: 15, max: 50 },
  cloud_name: "<Your CLOUDNAME>",
  api_key: "<Your API KEY>",
  api_secret: "<Your API SECRET>"
});

// Register your service.
filesrocket.register("cloudinary", service);

const app = express();

// Register your endpoint
app.post("/files", async (req, res) => {
  const controller = filesrocket.controller("cloudinary");

  const files = await controller?.create(req, {
    extnames: [".jpg", ".png", ".jpeg"]
  });

  res.status(200).json(files);
});

app.listen(3030, () => {
  console.log("App execute in port:3030");
