@wnodex/body-parser

wnodex body-parser middleware

Part of the wnodex ecosystem, this package provides body-parser middleware for wnodex.

About

@wnodex/body-parser is a middleware for wnodex that integrates the body-parser library to handle JSON and URL-encoded request bodies. It allows you to configure body parsing behavior through the main wnodex configuration.

Features

• Seamless integration with the wnodex server.
• Parses incoming request bodies in a middleware before your handlers.
• Supports both JSON and URL-encoded bodies.
• Configuration is centralized in the wnodex constructor.
• Based on the widely-used body-parser library.

Why use it?

This package simplifies request body parsing in your wnodex application. By integrating with the wnodex configuration system, it provides a consistent and streamlined way to manage middleware settings, abstracting away the boilerplate of setting up body-parser manually.

Installation

You can install the package using your favorite package manager:

pnpm

pnpm add @wnodex/body-parser

npm

npm install @wnodex/body-parser

yarn

yarn add @wnodex/body-parser

bun

bun add @wnodex/body-parser

Usage

@wnodex/body-parser is enabled by default in wnodex. You can customize its behavior by passing a bodyParsers object to the Wnodex constructor.

To disable it, set bodyParsers to false.

import { Wnodex } from 'wnodex';

// Example: Enable with custom options
const server = new Wnodex({
  bodyParsers: {
    json: { limit: '10mb' },
    urlencoded: { extended: true },
  },
});

// Example: Disable body-parser
const serverWithDisabledBodyParser = new Wnodex({
  bodyParsers: false,
});

server.start();

The options for json and urlencoded are passed directly to the body-parser library.
