You can use Formidable. As It support multipart data. And for retrieve video you can use fs(file system)

Actually you don't save media(image or video) in DB, you store it in some storage drive(locally or cloud) like s3 bucket, and then store its location url in your DB.
and this code might be helpful.
saveImage(urlPath, folderPath, multiple) {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
var timestamp = Date.now();
var filepath = urlPath;
var imageUrl;
var ext = path.extname(filepath || '').split('.');
var extension = ext[ext.length - 1];
var tmp_path = filepath;
imageUrl = folderPath + timestamp + '.' + extension;
if (multiple != '' && multiple != undefined) { imageUrl = folderPath + timestamp + multiple + '.' + extension; }
var target_path = __dirname + '/../' + imageUrl;//Change according to your location.
console.log("target_path", target_path);
mv(tmp_path, target_path, { mkdirp: true }, function (err) { })
return resolve({ status: 1, url: imageUrl });
})
}
Now, urlPath is your media path, foldarPath is path where you want to store your media and multiple is to give unique name.
you can call this method like this.
var multiple = Number(0) + Number(10);
console.log("multiple", multiple);
var saveImage = await 'YOUR_FILE_NAME'.saveImage(files.photo[0].path, 'public/Image/', multiple);
console.log(saveImage);
