Express js form data

Question

Can someone please tell me the recommended (up to date) way to get POSTed form data in express.

So many tutorials/ posts etc talk about bodyParser but this is no lon

Answer 1

From the README of body-parser:

This does not handle multipart bodies, due to their complex and typically large nature.

The above is going to work with x-www-form-urlencoded and json but it will NOT work with any multipart. form-data is also multipart with the header multipart/form-data.

In case of form-data, your best solution would be to use express-formidable.
