I have a post request that submits a patient name and the server is supposed to give me back patient_id
in response. I get a 200 response back to the client however I don't get the patient_id
back which is what I need. When I console log on the server i can see patient.id
is generated and there are no errors either. Wonder if there is something I am missing?
Response -
body: (...), bodyUsed: false, headers: Headers {}, ok: true, redirected: false, status: 200, statusText: "OK", type: "basic", url: "http://localhost:4000/patient/add"
//client side post
handleSubmit(e) {
e.preventDefault();
const postUrl = '/patient/add';
fetch(postUrl, {
method: 'POST',
headers: {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'},
body: this.state.patientName
})
.then(response=> {
if (!response.ok) console.log('failed', response);
else console.log(response);
});
}
this.app.post('/patient/add', bodyParser.text(),
this.route_post_patient_add.bind(this));
async route_post_patient_add(req, res) {
/** @type {string} */
const body = req.body;
if (body === undefined) {
logger.warning('Set room patient failed, body missing');
res.sendStatus(400);
return;
}
if (body === "") {
logger.warning(' body is empty');
res.sendStatus(400);
return;
}
try {
const patient_id = await this.save_patient(body);
res.send(patient_id);
console.log(patient_id); //logs the id that is generated
}
catch (err) {
logger.error('Set patient failed, internal error', { err });
res.sendStatus(500);
}
}
The response
object in fetch
is not the raw body.
You have to call a function and resolve a promise to get the data.
For example:
fetch("foo")
.then(parse_body)
.then(log_data);
function parse_body(response) {
return response.text();
}
function log_data(response_text) {
console.log(response_text);
}
