request param vs queryparam node code example

Example 1: get query parameters in node.js

var express = require('express');
var app = express();

app.get('/', function(req, res){
  res.send('id: ' + req.query.id);
});

app.listen(3000);

Example 2: difference between req.query and req.params

req.params contains route parameters
(in the path portion of the URL),
and req.query contains the URL query parameters
(after the ? in the URL).

You can also use req.param(name) to look up a parameter in both places
(as well as req.body),
but this method is now deprecated.
