I have client server application (ReactJS + NodeJS) and database PostgreSQL. I need to save files (.doc/.xlsx) with binding to a record in the database. What the best way to do it?



In my opinion, I should send files to backend, save it in a directory (folder) and marked (for example, add to file name id of a database record). But I'm not sure that this is optimal solution. Can you give me some advice how to realise it? Examples and documentation links will be good for me



For uploading files on client-side I will use




input type='file'

  • You should have to save it to a folder on the root path or wherever then in your db create a document with the file url associated, so then you could access to that file.
