Parse Array of JSON objects in NodeJS

Question

I am wondering how can I parse Array of JSON objects in NodeJS?

I want to post JSON array to the server, and be able to use the received array as a regualar JavaScri

You may actually send the JSON directly to server.

    $.ajax({
        url: "/echo",
        type: 'POST',
        data: JSON.stringify(QuestionsArray),
        processData: false,
        contentType: 'application/json'
    }).success(function (data) {
        alert(data);
    });

And in node.js, use bodyParser.json to get it back.

app.use(bodyParser.json({}));

app.post('/echo', function (req, res) {
    var array = req.body;
    res.end(array[0]["QuestionText"].toString());
});

By the way, do not use Array as variable name because Array represent the Array class used by JavaScript and your code has overwritten it.
