Error: request entity too large

Question

I\'m receiving the following error with express:

Error: request entity too large
    at module.exports (/Users/michaeljames/Documents/Projects/Proj/mean/node

I don't think this is the express global size limit, but specifically the connect.json middleware limit. This is 100kb by default when you use express.bodyParser() and don't provide a limit option.

Try:

app.post('/api/0.1/people', express.bodyParser({limit: '5mb'}), yourHandler);
