req.query for method POST

[Prashanth]

Hi,

What is the intension behind not adding req.query for in the case
of method is post? I get it that if i use bodyparser its part of the
req.body but what makes it different from get.

it should work for any method, this is the query() middleware (used by express internally):

module.exports = function query(){

  return function query(req, res, next){

    req.query = ~req.url.indexOf('?')

      ? qs.parse(parse(req.url).query)

      : {};

    next();

  };

};

so if there's a query-string you should have it

I dont think post parameters are part of query string.

Post parameters will only be on the query string if your form method is get. Otherwise it's in the body

yeah the request body == req.body, query-string == req.query
