I can't seem to get the data from this post call. The body shows as an empty object {}.
I've tried several versions including these posts with no luck: Express.js req.body undefined
I've also tried different content-types, but that also hasn't worked.
Thoughts? Thanks in advance.
index.js:
const express = require('express')
const bodyParser = require('body-parser')
const app = express()
const db = require('./queries.js')
const port = 7000
// create application/json parser
var jsonParser = bodyParser.json()
// create application/x-www-form-urlencoded parser
var urlencodedParser = bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false })
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.json({
info: 'Node.js, Express, and Postgres API'
})
})
app.post('/jothook/', jsonParser, db.jothook)
app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`App running on port ${port}.`)
})
queries.js:
const Pool = require('pg').Pool
const { req } = require('express');
const pool = new Pool({
user: 'testuser',
host: '167.XX.XX.XX',
database: 'testdb',
password: 'testpwd',
port: 5432,
})
const jothook = (req, res) => {
var qy = JSON.stringify(req.body);
var qy = 'INSERT INTO data_test VALUES ' + qy;
pool.query(qy, (error, results) => {
if (error) {
throw error
}
res.status(201).send(`Data Inserted`)
})
};
module.exports = {
jothook
};
post call:
{headers={Content-Type=application/json}, body="'test_data', 'joe', 'smith'", method=POST, mode=cors}
