why we use body parser code example
Example 1: body parser use
var express = require("express");
var app = express();
var bodyParser = require("body-parser");
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended: true}));
Example 2: body parser
var express = require('express')
var bodyParser = require('body-parser')
var app = express()
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false }))
app.use(bodyParser.json()) app.use(function (req, res) { res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain') res.write('you posted:\n') res.end(JSON.stringify(req.body, null, 2))})
Example 3: body parser
<script>
const bodyParser = require("body-parser");
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended:true}));
app.post("/", function(req, res){
let firstName = req.body.fNAME;
});
</script>
<input type="text" name="fNAME" placeholder="First Name">
