Trouble with Programmatically Updating Media URLS in API to Cloudfront domain URL

Discord Q&A strapi-questions

So if you wanna mod the url for fronted that’s way to go

22

I tried this a while back but got nowhere:

  {
    name: 'updateVideoUrls',
    config: {},
    path: '/content-manager/single-types/*', 
  },
  'strapi::logger',
  'strapi::errors',
....
];

// middleware/update-video-urls.js
module.exports = async (ctx, next) => {
  if (ctx.request.route.path.startsWith('/content-manager/single-types') && ctx.request.method === 'PUT') {
    const { result } = ctx.request.body;

    if (result && result.video && result.video.length > 0) {
      result.video = result.video.map((videoData) => {
        const originalUrl = videoData.url;
        const cloudFrontUrl = originalUrl.replace('[S3 BUCKET URL]', '[CLOUDFRONT URL]');
        videoData.url = cloudFrontUrl;
        return videoData;
      });
    }
  }

  await next();
};

I read about middleware and again just tried to just wing it

The code should be after await next()

It kept having a fit at me saying invalid middleware configuration and I couldnt quite debug it:
