trimbody.js - Request Body trimmer for Express Server

Trim extra spaces on request body for your express / sails app using this middlware.

Getting Started

Installation

Install the package via npm npm install @hashtaagco/trimbody --save

Using

Using this middleware is quite simple like other out there.

var express = require('express')
var trimbody = require('@hashtaagco/trimbody')
var bodyParser = require('body-parser')

var app = express()

// parse various different custom JSON types as JSON
app.use(bodyParser.json())
 
app.use(trimbody)

app.get('/', function (req, res) {
	res.send('hello world')
})


app.post('/test', (req, res) => {
	console.log(req.body)
	res.send(req.body)
})
app.listen(9092)

Now make post request via curl / postman to verify.

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{ "name" : "Anand Siddharth " }' http://localhost:9092/test

Response : {"name":"Anand Siddharth"}.

Observe that the extra space is gone in the key name.

That's all folks
