When i upload files with meta function as seen in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28885282/how-to-store-files-with-meta-data-in-loopback

Everything worked BUT the formData sent along with the upload.

Kindly help, How i get the data i sent along with file upload,

My Code is Given Below

``'use strict';

module.exports = function(Upload) {

Upload.upload = function(ctx,options,cb){
	if(!options) options = {};
	console.log(ctx);cb();
	Upload.app.models.auth.findById(ctx.req.accessToken.userId,{},function(err,data){
		if(err) {
			return cb(err);
		}
		ctx.req.params.container = 'institution_'+data.institutionId;
		Upload.app.models.storage.upload(ctx.req,ctx.result,options,function(err,fileObj){
			if(err) {
				return cb(err);
			} else {
				var fileInfo = fileObj.files.file[0];
				Upload.app.models.upload.create({
					filename: fileInfo.name,
					authId: ctx.req.accessToken.userId,
					institutionId: data.institutionId,
					type: fileInfo.type,
					size: fileInfo.size,
					container: fileInfo.container,
					url: '/api/storages/'+ fileInfo.container +'/download/'+fileInfo.name,
					lastModified: fileInfo.lastModified
				},function(err,obj){
					if (err) {
						return cb(err);
					} else {
						return cb(null, obj);
					}
				});
			}
		});
	});
}

Upload.remoteMethod('upload',{
	description: 'Uploads a file and Record in Database',
	accepts: [
	{ arg: 'ctx', type: 'object', http: {source:'context'}},
	{ arg: 'options', type: 'object', http:{source:'body'}}
	],
	returns: {arg: 'fileObject', type: 'object', root: true},
	http: {verb: 'post',path: '/upload'}
});

};
