Express-query-parser
A parser helps you parse request for your express server. You may usually encounter some req.query
issues like parsing 'null'
, 'true'
and any numbered string. This parser covert them to the right type.
scenarios
query with object
// GET http://localhost/?a=null&b=true&c[d]=false&c[e]=3.14
// without this parser
req.query = {a: 'null', b: 'true', c: {d: 'false', e: '3.14'}}
// with this parser
req.query = {a: null, b: true, c: {d: false, e: 3.14}}
query with array
// GET http://localhost/?a[]=null&a[]=false
// without this parser
req.query = {a: ['null', 'false']}
// with this parser
req.query = {a: [null, false]}
