Started using node.js and trying the use the POST request with a fetch but when I run it, it just comes back as {} in the console Server side code -->
const express = require("express")
const app = express()
app.listen(3000, () => console.log("listening at 3000"))
app.use(express.static("public"))
app.use(express.json())
app.post("/api", (request,response) => {
console.log("Made the POST")
console.log(request.body)
})
the fetch -->
async function submitValues(){
const start = document.getElementById("start").value;
const end = document.getElementById("end").value
// console.log(start,end)
// findShortestPath(graph, start, end)
data = {start, end}
options = {
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type":"applcation/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify(data),
}
await fetch("/api", options);
}
This is what i've written but just cant figure it out
First you need to install Node.js body parsing middleware:
$ npm install --save body-parser
and then:
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.post("/api", (request,response) => {
console.log("Made the POST")
console.log(request.body)
})
This method doesn't return anything, so not sure why you're surprised this API returns nothing.
