IPFS-BULK-UPLOAD project 'toString' error

Technical Issue Reporting
#22

use this to get the dynamic number of total files in a folder

let totalFiles = fs.readdirSync(folder).length;

#23

Hey, Iā€™ve been troubleshooting this string issue since yesterday with no success.
I have checked the names of files and are paddedhex 64 digit forms, I have also made sure the amount of them was between 5-10mb, even played with taking some out and making it less than 5mb. I am using pngā€™s.
I use the same folder structures. The substr(ā€œ64ā€) is deprecated
Aside from this deprecation, I have the same code as Filip. Of course I have my api key in there.
Could my server online be the issue?

Below is what I type and itā€™s response.

Node.js v17.4.0
[email protected] ipfsuploadbulk % node image.js
/Users/bobo/Downloads/ipfsuploadbulk/images.js:15
content: data.toString(ā€œbase64ā€)

TypeError: cannot read properties of undefined (reading ā€˜toStringā€™)
at ReadFileContext.callback (/Users/bobo/Downloads/ipfsuploadbulk/images.js:15:31

this is my code
let fs = require(ā€œfsā€);
let axios = require(ā€œaxiosā€);

let ipfsArray = [];
let promises = [];

for (let i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
let paddedHex = (ā€œ0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000ā€ + i.toString(16)).substr("-64");

promises.push(new Promise( (res, rej) => {
fs.readFile(${__dirname}/export/${paddedHex}.png, (err, data) => {
if(err) rej();
ipfsArray.push({
path: images/${paddedHex}.png,
content: data.toString(ā€œbase64ā€)
})
res();
})
}))
}

Promise.all(promises).then( () => {
axios.post(ā€œhttps://deep-index.moralis.io/api/v2/ipfs/uploadFolderā€,
ipfsArray,
{
headers: {
ā€œEGLpjxRDz9WyGrI1gL18lalA0TxDS2pJKN7eF5gZfVGiXUdCM2k059r4g1tTaQ4Oā€: ā€˜ā€™,
ā€œContent-Typeā€: ā€œapplication/jsonā€,
ā€œacceptā€: ā€œapplication/jsonā€
}
}
).then( (res) => {
console.log(res.data);
})
.catch ( (error) => {
console.log(error)
})
})

any help would be great. thank you

#24

can you try with 1MB for total folder size?
after that youā€™ll have to check if files are in the expected folder (fs.readFile(${__dirname}/export/${paddedHex}.png, ()

#25

yes. thank you.
Not sure what is upā€¦ trying many things on other posts and changing directories to get the correct one, even tho i know the .pngā€™s are where they need to beā€¦
I got this error, something new after playing

#26

From that error it looks like it tries to search in an absolute path starting with /export

Actually figured out that it had to do with the amount of zeros in the filenameā€¦ I counted them many times, to all total 64, but I guess I donā€™t know how to count that high lmao. I just copied the zeros from inside the code to the images, with the corresponding 1, 2, 3ā€™s afterā€¦
wow. I definitely learned a lot troubleshooting this script tho. Thanks again all comments above

cryptokid, do you know if there is a workaround to the filesize of the folder? I mean this code is great but even have a folder that is 7mb will not work. Seems I can only upload about 10 files at a time. I did an upgrade with moralis and still cannot seem to do an actual BULK upload. Any insight would be great. Thanks again

#29

for now I donā€™t know of a solution with Moralis, you could try to upload all the files to an IPFS folder with another IPFS provider

#30

tried every solution on hereā€¦ the i = 0 one worked to file one file but overall nothingā€¦ extremely frustrated with this

#31

most of the times it tries to access a path that doesnā€™t exist

#32

iā€™m getting this error now ā€¦ before it was just the toString error
any ideas ? full code below

#33

it looks like this is a new error that we have, we will have to fix it, this looks like is not from your code

#34

: (
any other way to upload nfts in bulk ?

#35

you can upload them separately with pinata if you want
I donā€™t know exactly how fast we will fix this ā€˜Invalid files or path are duplicatedā€™ error

#36

ill check it out thanksā€¦

#37

that error with Invalid files or path are duplicated should be fixed now

#38

wow lets sees if this will work

#39

its working but only downloading one file ā€¦ maybe the amount of zeros is wrong ā€¦ its 64 zeros and then 1 right ?

#40

I think that in total it has to be 64 characters, as in 63 zeros and 1

#41

ok let me fix it and come back thanks though regardlessā€¦ this is the fastest i received a reply for an issue ever ā€¦
