Laveraging Pinata API to upload files

This is a submission for the The Pinata Challenge

What I Built

I built a multiple file upload using Golang and React, It able to upload multiple files to Pinata.

Here's a breakdown of what it does:

  • It checks if the HTTP method of the request is POST. If not, it sends an error response with a status code of 405 (Method Not Allowed) and returns.
  • It parses the multipart form data from the request using the ParseMultipartForm function, with a maximum file size of maxFileSize. If there is an error parsing the form data, it sends an error response with a status code of 400 (Bad Request) and returns.
  • It retrieves the list of uploaded files from the request using MultipartForm.File["files"]. If no files were uploaded, it sends an error response with a status code of 400 (Bad Request) and returns.
  • It initializes two slices: responses to store the successful uploads, and errors to store any errors that occur during the upload process.
  • It creates a sync.WaitGroup and a sync.Mutex to synchronize the concurrent file uploads.
  • It iterates over each uploaded file and launches a goroutine to upload the file using the uploadFileToPinata function. The wg.Add(1) increments the wait group counter, and the defer wg.Done() decrements it when the goroutine completes.
  • The uploadFileToPinata function uploads each file to a Pinata API endpoint and returns the response and any error that occurred during the upload.
  • The mu.Lock() and mu.Unlock() calls ensure that the responses and errors slices are updated atomically.
  • After all the goroutines are complete, the function waits for them to finish using wg.Wait().
  • It constructs a JSON response struct result with the successful uploads and errors.
  • It sets the response header's content type to JSON.
  • It checks for errors. If so, it sets the response status code to 206 (Partial Content). Otherwise, it sets the status code to 200 (OK).
  • It encodes the result struct as JSON and writes it to the response body.

Overall, this code snippet handles the file upload process, performs concurrent uploads, and sends a JSON response with the successful uploads and any errors that occurred during the process.
