Access data send by xhr request in node.js
Because of how bodyParser accepts the body of a request, you have to set the request header "Content-Type" to 'application/json' for your request to work properly. This is very simple to accomplish; a simplexmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json') will do the trick.
You can read the request body via req.body:
app.post('/', function(req,res){ console.log("request method :" + req.method); console.log("request body :" + req.body); res.end("OK");});
