req.body
An object containing text parameters from the parsed request body, defaulting to {}.
By default, the request body can be URL-encoded or stringified as JSON. Support for other formats, such as serialized XML, is possible using the middleware configuration.
Usage
#req.body;
Notes
#
- If a request contains one or more file uploads, only the text parameters sent before the first file parameter will be available in
req.body.- When using Skipper, the default body parser, this property will be
undefinedfor GET requests.
