Missing req.body

See original GitHub issue

With reference to the recipe to manipulate the request object posted at https://github.com/chimurai/http-proxy-middleware/blob/master/recipes/modify-post.md

onProxyReq

var onProxyReq = function(proxyReq, req, res) {
    if ( (req.method == "POST" || req.method == "PUT") ) {
        console.log('######## POST Request');
        console.log(req);
    }
};

This is the request object I am sending from my client:

"{"method":"POST","transformRequest":[null],"transformResponse":[null],"url":"/api/cli/labels/","data":{"color":"#ab30ac","name":"newlbl","type":"IP"},"headers":{"Accept":"application/json, text/plain, */*","Content-Type":"application/json;charset=utf-8","Authorization":"Bearer XXXXXXXX","XXXXXX":1505506463,"XXXXXXX":"1.3.0"},"cached":false}"

But, I am not seeing any body in the output. Here’s the output I am seeing.

Nevermind… I think I got the solution. @chimurai’s post on https://github.com/chimurai/http-proxy-middleware/issues/40 has an example that can do what I’m trying to do.

if (req.body) {
        let bodyData = JSON.stringify(req.body);
        // incase if content-type is application/x-www-form-urlencoded -> we need to change to application/json
        proxyReq.setHeader('Content-Type','application/json');
        proxyReq.setHeader('Content-Length', Buffer.byteLength(bodyData));
        // stream the content
        proxyReq.write(bodyData);
    }

This example uses the “body-parser” module in the main app to create a req.body object with the decoded POST parameters. Side note - the code below will allow “http-proxy-middleware” to work with “body-parser”.

You’ll need the body-parser middleware, as described.
