Failed to get local file while the path is correct. about wikiapi

It should works now.

After uploading the 2 files above to Github... Just for fun, I tried to change the file_path value from local path into the github url path https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1420189/112379664-b9a79100-8ce8-11eb-981d-727884b32993.png . And.... it works ! See On Commons (if no admin delete it). Since the local path is correct, it's very likely an issue with local file reading.

I provided my whole code so you may easily test it if you wish.

EDIT: please note i am importing

//const fetch  = require('node-fetch'); // url
//const fs     = require('fs');   // local path

Which may mess up some of your code ??
EDIT: I shifted these two lines into comments and same error messages occurs.

The two situations are not the same.
You may try{...}catch(e){console.error(e);} to see what happens.

Oh. I. See..... 🤩

1) commons-upload.js now returns :

to_form_data: Failed to get file: [./reds/png/a-red.png]
{
  code: 'missingparam',
  info: 'One of the parameters "filekey", "file" and "url" is required.',
  '*': 'See https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php for API usage. Subscribe to the mediawiki-api-announce mailing list at <https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-api-announce> for notice of API deprecations and breaking changes.'
}

On Commons's API > Upload we can read:

• file: File contents. Must be posted as a file upload using multipart/form-data.
• url: URL to fetch the file from.
• filekey : Key that identifies a previous upload that was stashed temporarily.

It tried some stuffs with fs.read() but doesn't work.
So I'am lost. 😬 Your help is welcome to interpret the error above.

EDIT: move distinct rename error to distinct issue.

It does better but there is still a bump. If you are in Taiwan as I believe I prefer to report you this issue tomorrow. 👍🏼 🌃

[kanasimi]

OK. 😺 Please open a new issue.

I cleaned up the issue and split it. Done for today. I will open other issues later this week.

See #26 #27.
