'Unable to render PDF to browser when retrieved from gridfs-stream
My Controller : -
view: async (req, res) => {
var id = req.params.pid
id = mongoose.Types.ObjectId(id)
const project = await Project.findById(id)
const upid = project.uploadedGridFileId
var uploads = mongoose.createConnection("mongodb://localhost:27017/techv-uploads", { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true })
//console.log(uploads)
uploads.once('open', function () {
var gfs = gridfsStream(uploads.db, mongoose.mongo)
var readstream = gfs.createReadStream({
_id: mongoose.Types.ObjectId(upid),
root: "projectPdfs"
})
//console.log(readstream)
res.set("Content-Type" , "application/pdf")
res.set("Content-Disposition", "inline" )
readstream.pipe(res)
})
}
Instead to directly displaying on the browser , it gives download option . It is working with image files but not with pdfs .
