As the image shown, BodyParser now is deprecated, how to correct the bodyParser syntax or statement to remove the line-through?
body parsing has become builtin with express
So, simply use
app.use(express.json()) //For JSON requests
app.use(express.urlencoded({extended: true}));
from directly express
You can uninstall body-parser using npm uninstall body-parser
Then you can simply get the POST content from req.body
app.post("/yourpath", (req, res)=>{
var postData = req.body;
//Or like this, for string JSON body
var postData = JSON.parse(req.body);
});
Same issue occur to my projects also . Now in latest express we don't need to import body-parse, we can just use express as follow.
app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
or if you limit size
app.use(express.urlencoded({ limit: "50mb", parameterLimit: 500000000 }));
If you are using Express 4.16+ you don't have to import body-parser
anymore. You can do it just like this:
app.use(express.urlencoded({extended: true}));
app.use(express.json()) // To parse the incoming requests with JSON payloads
