Description

A node.js module for parsing incoming HTML form data.

Requirements

Install

npm install busboy

Examples

  • Parsing (multipart) with default options:
var http = require('http'),
    inspect = require('util').inspect;

var Busboy = require('busboy');

http.createServer(function(req, res) {
  if (req.method === 'POST') {
    var busboy = new Busboy({ headers: req.headers });
    busboy.on('file', function(fieldname, file, filename, encoding, mimetype) {
      console.log('File [' + fieldname + ']: filename: ' + filename + ', encoding: ' + encoding + ', mimetype: ' + mimetype);
      file.on('data', function(data) {
        console.log('File [' + fieldname + '] got ' + data.length + ' bytes');
      });
      file.on('end', function() {
        console.log('File [' + fieldname + '] Finished');
      });
    });
    busboy.on('field', function(fieldname, val, fieldnameTruncated, valTruncated, encoding, mimetype) {
      console.log('Field [' + fieldname + ']: value: ' + inspect(val));
    });
    busboy.on('finish', function() {
      console.log('Done parsing form!');
      res.writeHead(303, { Connection: 'close', Location: '/' });
      res.end();
    });
    req.pipe(busboy);
  } else if (req.method === 'GET') {
    res.writeHead(200, { Connection: 'close' });
    res.end('<html><head></head><body>\
               <form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">\
                <input type="text" name="textfield"><br />\
                <input type="file" name="filefield"><br />\
                <input type="submit">\
              </form>\
            </body></html>');
  }
}).listen(8000, function() {
  console.log('Listening for requests');
});

// Example output, using http://nodejs.org/images/ryan-speaker.jpg as the file:
//
// Listening for requests
// File [filefield]: filename: ryan-speaker.jpg, encoding: binary
// File [filefield] got 11971 bytes
// Field [textfield]: value: 'testing! :-)'
// File [filefield] Finished
// Done parsing form!
  • Save all incoming files to disk:
var http = require('http'),
    path = require('path'),
    os = require('os'),
    fs = require('fs');

var Busboy = require('busboy');

http.createServer(function(req, res) {
  if (req.method === 'POST') {
    var busboy = new Busboy({ headers: req.headers });
    busboy.on('file', function(fieldname, file, filename, encoding, mimetype) {
      var saveTo = path.join(os.tmpDir(), path.basename(fieldname));
      file.pipe(fs.createWriteStream(saveTo));
    });
    busboy.on('finish', function() {
      res.writeHead(200, { 'Connection': 'close' });
      res.end("That's all folks!");
    });
    return req.pipe(busboy);
  }
  res.writeHead(404);
  res.end();
}).listen(8000, function() {
  console.log('Listening for requests');
});
  • Parsing (urlencoded) with default options:
var http = require('http'),
    inspect = require('util').inspect;

var Busboy = require('busboy');

http.createServer(function(req, res) {
  if (req.method === 'POST') {
    var busboy = new Busboy({ headers: req.headers });
    busboy.on('file', function(fieldname, file, filename, encoding, mimetype) {
      console.log('File [' + fieldname + ']: filename: ' + filename);
      file.on('data', function(data) {
        console.log('File [' + fieldname + '] got ' + data.length + ' bytes');
      });
      file.on('end', function() {
        console.log('File [' + fieldname + '] Finished');
      });
    });
    busboy.on('field', function(fieldname, val, fieldnameTruncated, valTruncated) {
      console.log('Field [' + fieldname + ']: value: ' + inspect(val));
    });
    busboy.on('finish', function() {
      console.log('Done parsing form!');
      res.writeHead(303, { Connection: 'close', Location: '/' });
      res.end();
    });
    req.pipe(busboy);
  } else if (req.method === 'GET') {
    res.writeHead(200, { Connection: 'close' });
    res.end('<html><head></head><body>\
               <form method="POST">\
                <input type="text" name="textfield"><br />\

// Done parsing form!

API

Busboy is a Writable stream

Busboy (special) events

  • file(< string >fieldname, < ReadableStream >stream, < string >filename, < string >transferEncoding, < string >mimeType) - Emitted for each new file form field found. transferEncoding contains the Content-Transfer-Encoding value for the file stream. mimeType contains the Content-Type value for the file stream.

    • Note: if you listen for this event, you should always handle the stream no matter if you care about the file contents or not (e.g. you can simply just do stream.resume(); if you want to discard the contents), otherwise the finish event will never fire on the Busboy instance. However, if you dont care about any incoming files, you can simply not listen for the file event at all and any/all files will be automatically and safely discarded (these discarded files do still count towards files and parts limits).
    • If a configured file size limit was reached, stream will both have a boolean property truncated (best checked at the end of the stream) and emit a limit event to notify you when this happens.
  • field(< string >fieldname, < string >value, < boolean >fieldnameTruncated, < boolean >valueTruncated, < string >transferEncoding, < string >mimeType) - Emitted for each new non-file field found.

  • partsLimit() - Emitted when specified parts limit has been reached. No more file or field events will be emitted.

  • filesLimit() - Emitted when specified files limit has been reached. No more file events will be emitted.

  • fieldsLimit() - Emitted when specified fields limit has been reached. No more field events will be emitted.

Busboy methods

  • (constructor)(< object >config) - Creates and returns a new Busboy instance.

    • The constructor takes the following valid config settings:

      • headers - object - These are the HTTP headers of the incoming request, which are used by individual parsers.

      • highWaterMark - integer - highWaterMark to use for this Busboy instance (Default: WritableStream default).

      • fileHwm - integer - highWaterMark to use for file streams (Default: ReadableStream default).

      • defCharset - string - Default character set to use when one isnt defined (Default: utf8).

      • preservePath - boolean - If paths in the multipart filename field shall be preserved. (Default: false).

      • limits - object - Various limits on incoming data. Valid properties are:

        • fieldNameSize - integer - Max field name size (in bytes) (Default: 100 bytes).

        • fieldSize - integer - Max field value size (in bytes) (Default: 1MB).

        • fields - integer - Max number of non-file fields (Default: Infinity).

        • fileSize - integer - For multipart forms, the max file size (in bytes) (Default: Infinity).

        • files - integer - For multipart forms, the max number of file fields (Default: Infinity).

        • parts - integer - For multipart forms, the max number of parts (fields + files) (Default: Infinity).

        • headerPairs - integer - For multipart forms, the max number of header key=>value pairs to parse Default: 2000 (same as nodes http).

    • The constructor can throw errors:

      • Unsupported content type: $type - The Content-Type isnt one Busboy can parse.

      • Missing Content-Type - The provided headers dont include Content-Type at all.
