Receive HTTPS POST request in NODEJS

Question

I want to handle the POST request data in NODEJS using HTTPS. Something like below,

var express = require('express')
var bodyParser = require('body-parser')
var https = require('https'); 
// Create a new instance of express
var app = express()

// Tell express to use the body-parser middleware and to not parse extended bodies
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false }))
 //private key and certificate for secure connection (https)
var options = {
    key: fs.readFileSync('key.pem'),
    cert: fs.readFileSync('cert.pem'),
    requestCert: false,
    rejectUnauthorized: false,
 };
var httpsApp = https.createServer(options,app);
// Route that receives a POST request to /sms
httpsApp._events.request.post('/xyz', function (req, res) {
  -----
  some code
  -----

})

httpsApp.listen(5004, function(){
   console.log("listening on port 5004");
   logger.info("listening on port 5004");
});

But turns out, this only works for HTTP request. This will not give any error but it wont receive the data to be received in '/xyz'.

Thanks.

也许您可以使用反向代理之类的方法来更好地解决此问题？

Maybe you need to check your certificates. I have checked this code through my certificates and they are working with https. I m putting code here:

var express = require('express')
var bodyParser = require('body-parser')
var https = require('https'); 
var fs = require('fs')
// Create a new instance of express
var app = express()

// Tell express to use the body-parser middleware and to not parse extended bodies
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false }))
 //private key and certificate for secure connection (https)
var options = {
    key: fs.readFileSync('./certificates/server.key'),
    cert: fs.readFileSync('./certificates/server.crt'),
    requestCert: false,
    rejectUnauthorized: false,
 };
var httpsApp = https.createServer(options,app);
// Route that receives a POST request to /sms
httpsApp._events.request.get('/xyz', function (req, res) {
  console.log("Works")
    res.send("working")
})

httpsApp.listen(5004, function(){
   console.log("listening on port 5004");
});
