Store file after restart dev

[quangthienit1994]

Upload module working very perfect, but I don't know how to stop Adonis auto delete all file uploaded to public folder after restart dev environment. :(

The uploaded file shouldn't be stored inside the public folder. You must store inside a directory outside of the build folder and then create a route to serve the files. Roughly the code should look as follows:

await file.move(Application.tmpPath('uploads'))

and then serve them as follows:

Route.get('uploads/:filename', ({ response, params }) => {
  return response.download(Application.tmpPath('uploads', params.filename))
})

The great thing about custom route is that it gives you the freedom to have custom logic when serving files to the user

I don't want download the file, that only images of product showing on the website. It's still working with response.download ? I only want use all file uploaded like https://preview.adonisjs.com/guides/http/static-files :))

The static files are for resources that are fixed and static. For example: Css, Javascript files or images that are not uploaded by the user.
