tus-js-client doesn't upload file larger than 100Mb for Android

[Xotonori]

tus-js-client doesn't upload file larger than 100Mb for Android. I've got next error - "Failed to upload because: Error: tus: cannot fetch file.uri as Blob, make sure the uri is correct and accessible. [object Object]"

I get video file data by "react-native-document-picker" library.

Than i get data like:

const assets = [{
"fileCopyUri": "file:///data/user/0/...projectName...development/files/9467e842-4db4-4bf7-849d-f3c400120665/fileName.mp4", 
"name": "basketball2k168MB.mp4", 
"size": 155686888, 
"type": "video/mp4", 
"uri":"content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/document/raw%3A%2Fstorage%2Femulated%2F0%2FDownload%2FfileName.mp4"
}];

Than i push assets to tus upload component and get presight params:

const uploadFile = (file: any, idx: number) => {
  const fileSize = file?.size || 0;

  dispatch(GameVimeoPresignUrl(idx, fileSize)).then(
    (data: VimeoPresignUrl) => {

      const {uploadLink, chunkSize, uri} = data;
      
      const uploader = new tus.Upload(file, {
        uploadUrl: uploadLink,
        endpoint: uploadLink,
        retryDelays: [0, 3000, 5000, 10000, 20000],
        chunkSize,
        metadata: {
          filename: `video.${file.name}`,
          filetype: file.type,
        },

        onError: onUploadError,
        onProgress: (bytesUploaded, bytesTotal) => {
          const percent = bytesUploaded / bytesTotal;
          onProgress(percent, idx);
        },
        onSuccess: () => {
          console.log('Successfully uploaded to:', uri);
          onUploadSuccess(uri);
        },
      });
      uploader.start();
    },
  );
};

And when uploading started, I get this error - "Failed to upload because: Error: tus: cannot fetch file.uri as Blob, make sure the uri is correct and accessible. [object Object]"

Files lower than 100Mb uploading very well, but larger don't( This problem only for an Android, IOS is ok.

Did you found any solution for this? I am also facing the exact same issue.

Unfortunatly no =(

I cannot confirm this issue.
I can successfully upload a 500 MB video file with tus-js-client 3.0.1 to my own TUS server implementation, with both Firefox and Chrome on Android 11 (LineageOS on a Google Pixel 1).

Separate: In your code:

      const uploader = new tus.Upload(file, {
//...
        chunkSize,

It looks like here you're passing the large file's full size as chunkSize.

According to chunkSize docs this will pull the whole file into RAM:

A large chunk size (more than a GB) is problematic when a reader/readable stream is used as the input file. In these cases, tus-js-client will create an in-memory buffer with the size of chunkSize

On Android devices you usually don't have a lot of RAM, so this might be problematic.

When attempting to upload a large file on iOS, the app's memory usage rapidly increases to 2GB and subsequently causes the app to crash.

@H4mxa Are you using React Native on iOS? Or are you using it in the browser? Because the original question was using React Native.
