NodeJS Express Req.Body未定义

Question

I have worked with several solutions posted on stack overflow, and I have yet to find one to work with me so I decided to ask.

Here is my nodejs file: (leaving out irrelevant code)

 var express = require('express'); var app = express(); var cors = require('cors'); var bodyParser = require('body-parser'); app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded()); app.use(bodyParser.json()); app.use(cors()); app.get('/sendEmail', function(req, res) { var answers = req.body.answers; console.log(answers); }) 

and also my POST:

 $http.get('http://localhost:5000/sendEmail', { answers: answer }) 

How come when I console log req.body.answers I get undefined?

Answer 1

You cannot have a body in a GET request. So change this:

app.post('/sendEmail', function(req, res) {
    var answers = req.body.answers;
    // whatever
})

and this:

$http.post('http://localhost:5000/sendEmail', {
  answers: answer
})
