I’m trying to get form inputs data on the console of node.js, but, it’s showing an empty Curly brace.
I used postman to check whether the data is received or not, it’s working well, data has been received successfully on the terminal console.
<——– I have taken the below steps to get the data from POSTMAN ——–>
step-1: created a new collection and selected a post request
step-2: entered request URL (http://localhost/loginandsingup)
step-3: in the header section, selected Content-Type in the key column and the value is application/json
step-4: added some data in the body section
{ "username": "shyam", "email": "kumbamshyam955@gmai.com", "mobilenumber": 6547896587, "password": "superman145", "confirmpassword": "superman145", "checkbox": true }
step-5: finally I clicked on the send button
Output from the postman, on terminal

Answer
——->It’s working✌️, after including the body-parser
module
const express = require('express') const router = express.Router() var bodyParser = require('body-parser') router.use(bodyParser.json()); router.use(bodyParser.json({ type: 'application/*+json' })) var urlencodedParser = bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false }) router.post('/loginandsingup', urlencodedParser, (req, res) => { const body = req.body; console.log(body); res.json({ message: req.body.username }); }) module.exports = router;
