I am parsing my json on end
but I am still receiving this error.
'use strict';
const http = require('http');
const tools = require('./tools.js');
const server = http.createServer(function(request, response) {
console.log("received " + request.method + " request from " + request.headers.referer)
var body = "";
request.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(err);
}).on('data', function(chunk) {
body += chunk;
}).on('end', function() {
console.log("body " + body);
var data = JSON.parse(body); // trying to parse the json
handleData(data);
});
tools.setHeaders(response);
response.write('message for me');
response.end();
});
server.listen(8569, "192.168.0.14");
console.log('Server running at 192.168.0.14 on port ' + 8569);
Data being sent from the client:
var data = JSON.stringify({
operation: "shutdown",
timeout: 120
});
I successfully receive the json but I am unable to parse it.
Update:
I've updated the code to include the server code in its entirety.
To be perfectly clear, using the following code:
....
}).on('end', function() {
console.log("body " + body);
var json = JSON.parse(body); // trying to parse the json
handleData(json);
});
I get this:
However, this:
....
}).on('end', function() {
console.log("body " + body);
//var json = JSON.parse(body); // trying to parse the json
//handleData(json);
});
produces this
Can we see the server code, please?
Here is a working end-to-end example which is (more or less) what you are attempting, I believe.
"use strict";
const http = require('http');
/********************
Server Code
********************/
let data = {
operation: 'shutdown',
timeout: 120
};
const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' });
res.write(JSON.stringify(data));
res.end();
});
server.listen(8888);
/********************
Client Code
********************/
let options = {
hostname: 'localhost',
port: 8888,
path: '/',
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Accept': 'application/json'
}
};
let req = http.request(options, res => {
let buffer = '';
res.on('data', chunk => {
buffer += chunk;
});
res.on('end', () => {
let obj = JSON.parse(buffer);
console.log(obj);
// do whatever else with obj
});
});
req.on('error', err => {
console.error('Error with request:', err);
});
req.end(); // send the request.
It turns out that as this is a cross-origin(cors) request, it was trying to parse the data sent in the preflighted request.
I simply had to add an if
to catch this
....
}).on('end', function() {
if (request.method !== 'OPTIONS') {
var data = JSON.parse(body);
handleData(data);
}
});

Put the identifiers in quotes.
{
"operation": "shutdown",
"timeout": 120
}
