Access GET parameter

Question

I want to send my server.js (in an AngularJS controller) an set the id parameter like this:

 $http
    .get('/getCst', {
        params: {               
            id: customerID
        }
     })
     .success(function (data,status) {
          $scope.customer = data
     });

But i'm not sure if this is the correct way and what to write in the Node.js server.js:

app.get('/getCst', function (req, res) {

        console.log(//how do i get the id sent by the client?);     
});

its not a duplicate. my url looks like `127.0.0.1:8080/cust/534543` 534543 is the id. I cant get it with req.query.id — user3061943, Jan 13 '15 at 09:23
What does `/cust/534543` have to do with `/getCst`? Your AngularJS code will *not* make a GET request to `/cust/534543`, not evetn to `/getCst/534524`. It will call `/getCst?id=534534`. https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$http — , Jan 13 '15 at 09:27
Use `req.query.id`. Ref : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17007997/how-to-access-the-get-parameters-in-express-js-or-node-js — themyth92, Jan 13 '15 at 09:34

It's my solution

app.get('/getCst/:id', function (req, res, next) {

        var id = req.params.id;    
});

Try this:

app.get('/getCst:id', function (req, res) {

        console.log(req.param('id'));     
});
