While attempting to set up my application, which employs multiple middlewares including body-parser, I encountered the following error:
Error: Most middleware (like bodyParser) is no longer bundled with Express and must be installed separately. Please refer to https://github.com/senchalabs/connect#middleware.
I separately installed body-parser using:
npm i body-parser
The NodeJS code snippet in question is as follows:
// Server definitions
var express = require('express');
var cors = require('cors');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const neo4j = require('neo4j-driver').v1;
var restify = require('restify');
var expressJwt = require('express-jwt');
var session = require('express-session');
var config = require('./config.json')
var app = express();
var router = express.Router();
var port = 3003;
app.use(restify.plugins.bodyParser());
app.use(express.bodyParser());
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({
extended: true
}));
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 3003);
app.set('views', __dirname + '/views');
app.set('view engine', 'jade');
app.use(favicon(__dirname + '/public/favicon.ico'));
app.use(logger('dev'));
app.use(methodOverride());
app.use(session({ resave: true, saveUninitialized: true, secret: 'uwotm8' }));
// parse application/json
app.use(bodyParser.json());
// parse application/x-www-form-urlencoded
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
// parse multipart/form-data
app.use(multer());
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.json({ type: 'application/vnd.api+json' })
app.use(cors());
app.use(session({ secret: config.secret, resave: false, saveUninitialized: true }));
var multer = require('multer');
var path = require('path');
var app = express();
var mkdirp = require('mkdirp')
var port = 3003;
var myModule = require('./api-mine-server/api-mine-controller.js');
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'uploads')));
app.use(function (req, res, next) {
res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
next();
});
var storage = multer.diskStorage({
destination: function (req, file, cb) {
//code
});
},
filename: function (req, file, cb) {
cb(null, file.originalname);
}
});
var upload = multer({ storage: storage });
app.post("/upload", upload.array("uploads[]", 12), function (req, res) {
//code
});
// ----------------- File Uploader code ends -------------------------
app.listen(app.get('port'), function(){
console.log('Express server on port ' + app.get('port'));
});
var server = app.listen(port, function () {
console.log("Listening on port %s...", port);
});
