I used the following simple code with v@39.0.2. Everything was working fine. But I want to keep the things updated. What are the things I’m doing wrong here? This maybe a stupid question, but I’m absolute beginner here.

const ipfs = window.IpfsHttpClient('ipfs.infura.io', '5001')
$("#upload").on("change", function() {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function (e) {
const magic_array_buffer_converted_to_buffer = buffer.Buffer(reader.result); // honestly as a web developer I do not fully appreciate the difference between buffer and arrayBuffer
ipfs.add(magic_array_buffer_converted_to_buffer, (err, ipfsHash) => {
console.log(ipfsHash[0].hash);
})
}
reader.readAsArrayBuffer(this.files[0]);
})
</script>

Error I’m getting here is :
Uncaught TypeError: Failed to construct ‘URL’: Invalid URL
