node.js正文解析器对Content-Type：x-www-form-urlencoded和Form-data JSON的错误解释

Question

I have a client request with

Content-type: Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8

And Form-Data like this (json):

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"print","params":{"id":"lp0","doc":"<section>
<p>&nbsp;sitedemo&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><barcode>                   CLODGCGMM                    
</barcode><br><br><hr><drawer></drawer><br></section>"},"id":1501151330950}

The node.js server use body-parser middleware like this :

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
app.use(bodyParser.json());

A console.log(request.body) give me something like this:

{ '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"print","params":{"id":"lp0","doc":"<section>
<p>': '',
'nbsp;': '',
'nbsp;sitedemo': '',
'nbsp;':'',
'&nbsp;</p><br><barcode>':''
'.......}'}

A json object is built having keys made by lines and values null .

How can i retrieve the exact object send by client (i have no access to client)

Thank you.

The client is broken when it's stating in the headers that the request body is URL-encoded but it's sending JSON.

If that's really the situation, you need to prevent those requests from being decoded by body-parser , and do the decoding manually.

Instead of this:

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));

Try this:

app.use(
  bodyParser.raw({ type : 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }),
  function(req, res, next) {
    try {
      req.body = JSON.parse(req.body)
    } catch(e) {
      req.body = require('qs').parse(req.body.toString());
    }
    next();
  }
);
