exports.handler = function(event, context, callback){

  var parser = new Multipart(event);

  parser.on('field',function(key, value){
    console.log('received field', key, value);
  });
  parser.on('file',function(file){
    //file.headers['content-type']
    file.pipe(fs.createWriteStream(__dirname+"/downloads/"+file.filename));
  });

  parser.on('finish',function(result){
    //result.files (array of file streams)
    //result.fields (object of field key/values)
    console.log("Finished")
  });
}
