How do I get webpack-dev-server to accept POST requests

问题

In my project I call:

$ webpack-dev-server --history-api-fallback

And it starts an express server (I'm assuming) available on localhost:8080.

It works great except that I want to submit a form via POST into an iframe loading my app; localhost:8080 in development and something else in production.

I don't expect to do anything with that POST data in development, but in production, it needs to be POST.

When I try to use POST however, it cannot find POST /

Is there a configuration option or some other solution that will allow me to use the webpack-dev-server? (I really don't want to have to write my own server for this).

@cowCrazy had half of the story, but didn't show how to respond with the same response for GET in the case of POST, which is what I was looking for.

In the Webpack config, you do this:

module.exports = {
    ...,
    devServer: {
        setup(app) {
            app.post('*', (req, res) => {
                res.redirect(req.originalUrl);
            });
        },
    }
}

This will just take the POST URL and redirect with the same URL, making it a GET request.

Instead of having a server error, it will redirect with GET.

What you are looking for is devServer. Bellow you can see my config for it. Under setup(app) you can add "almost" whatever you want:

module.exports = {
    ...,
    devServer: {
        inline: true,

        port: 3000,

        publicPath: '/',

        setup(app){

            var bodyParser = require('body-parser');    
            app.use(bodyParser.json());

            app.get("/get/some-data", function(req, res){
                console.log(req);
                res.send("GET res sent from webpack dev server")
            })

            app.post("/post/some-data", bodyParser.json(), function(req, res){
                console.log(req.body);
                res.send("POST res sent from webpack dev server")
            })
        }
    }
}

EDIT: I have pushed a minimalistic example to github if you wanna take a better look.

Check if it solves your problem by converting the POST request to GET request:

bypass: function (req, res, proxyOptions) {

      const url = req.url;
      req.method = 'GET';
      if (url.indexOf('?') > -1) {

        return url.replace('?', '.json?');
      } else {

        return url + '.json';
      }
    }
