escolha pelo menos um arquivo

Error message

escolha pelo menos um arquivo

What it means

publish_web validates that the PublishRequest contains at least one file before doing any upload; an empty req.files list immediately fails with 'escolha pelo menos um arquivo' (choose at least one file).

Solutions

1. Check req.files is non-empty in the UI/API layer before calling publish_web
2. Ensure the client serializes the files array correctly
3. Return a validation error to the user prompting a file selection

Example fix

// before
// calling publish_web directly with an empty request
// after
if (req.files.length === 0) { alert('escolha pelo menos um arquivo'); return; }

if (!req.files || req.files.length === 0) {
  throw new Error('escolha pelo menos um arquivo');
}

function hasFiles(req) { return Array.isArray(req.files) && req.files.length > 0; }

try { await publish_web(req) } catch (e) { if (String(e).includes('escolha pelo menos um arquivo')) { promptFileSelection(); } else { throw e; } }

When it happens

Trigger: Calling publish_web with kind photo/video/carousel and req.files == [].

Common situations: Frontend sends a publish request before the user selected files, or a file-picker bug drops the selection from the payload.
