Unexpected End of Stream Occurred when Converting PPTX to JPG

Im trying to convert a pptx file to jpg and reduce the writes to disk I create. When I send the buffer as a readable stream I am getting this error:

Error Code 500: Unexpected end of Stream, the content may have already been read by another component.

Code:

  const streamBuffer = Readable.from(req.file.buffer);

  slidesApi.convert(streamBuffer, api.ExportFormat.Png, null, null, null, null, size).then((response) => {
    console.log(response);
    try {

      // shell.rm('-rf', 'public/slides/*');

      // var zip = new AdmZip(response.body);

      // zip.extractAllTo(/*target path*/ "public/slides", /*overwrite*/ true);

    } catch (err) {
      console.error(err);
    }
  }).catch((error) => {
    console.log(`Error Code ${error.code }: ${error.message}`);
    res.send("Error Code " + error.code + ": " + error.message);
  });

@albertsonblake,
I’ve reproduced the problem with Readable stream when using the Convert method and added a ticket with ID SLIDESCLOUD-1481 to our issue tracking system. We apologize for any inconvenience. Our development team will investigate this case. You will be notified when the issue is resolved.

@albertsonblake,
Our developers have investigated the case. You can avoid the error by using the createReadStream method as shown below:

const fs = require("fs")

const streamBuffer = fs.createReadStream(req.file.buffer)

Is this solution right for you?
