const express = require('express');
const multer = require('multer');
const PDFParser = require('pdf-parse');

// Create an instance of Express
const app = express();

// Set up Multer storage
const storage = multer.diskStorage({
  destination: (req, file, cb) => {
    // Specify the directory where you want to save the uploaded files
    cb(null, 'uploads/');
  },
  filename: (req, file, cb) => {
    // Generate a unique filename by adding a timestamp
    const timestamp = Date.now();
    cb(null, `${timestamp}-${file.originalname}`);
  }
});

// Create a Multer instance with the storage configuration
const upload = multer({ storage: storage });

// Define the route for file upload
app.post('/upload', upload.single('file'), async (req, res) => {
  // Access the uploaded file through req.file
  if (!req.file) {
    return res.status(400).json({ error: 'No file uploaded' });
  }

  // Extract text from the uploaded file
  const filePath = req.file.path;

  try {
    const dataBuffer = fs.readFileSync(filePath);
    const pdfData = await PDFParser(dataBuffer);

    const extractedText = pdfData.text;

    // Do whatever you want with the extracted text
    console.log('Extracted text:', extractedText);

    // File uploaded and text extracted successfully
    res.json({ message: 'File uploaded and text extracted successfully' });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error while extracting text:', error);
    res.status(500).json({ error: 'Failed to extract text from the file' });
  }
});

// Start the server
app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('Server is running on port 3000');
});
