Hello everyone! 👋🏻
Recently I upgraded my cloud function from version 12.0.1 to the latest version, version 14.2.0. InputFile was removed and replaced by File. This caused some problem. Below I share the solution:
In my cloud function I have a function:
await storage.createFile(photoBucketId, 'unique()', new InputFile(Readable.from(buffer), "photo.jpg", Buffer.byteLength(buffer)));
A breaking change in at least version 14.2.0 is the removal of InputFile. It is replaced by File. This is what the new function call look likes after removing InputFile.
await storage.createFile(photoBucketId, 'unique()', new File([buffer], "photo.jpg");
File isn't supported by Node.js lower than version 22. It results in a ReferenceError: File is not defined error. If you want to stay on version 18 then you can use the web-file-polyfill package:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/web-file-polyfill
Just add it to your package.json, import it and you're done: import { File, Blob } from "web-file-polyfill. I tested this on Appwrite Cloud and it works as expected, as far as I can tell.
