Sending a post request from "angular->port 4200" to "expressjs server->port 8000".
Referencing this example: https://github.com/kuncevic/angular-httpclient-examples/blob/master/client/src/app/app.component.ts
Encountering two errors:
1) Undefined response from Node.js (data and req.body.text)
2) Message received from background. Values reset.
Angular-Side:
callServer() {
const culture = this.getLangCookie().split("-")[0];
const headers = new HttpHeaders()
headers.set('Authorization', 'my-auth-token')
headers.set('Content-Type', 'application/json');
this.http.post<string>(`http://127.0.0.1:8000/appculture`, culture, {
headers: headers
})
.subscribe(data => {
});
}
ExpressJS Side:
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var path = require('path');
app.all("/*", function(req, res, next){
res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*');
res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', 'GET,PUT,POST,DELETE,OPTIONS');
res.header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers', 'Content-Type, Authorization, Content-Length, X-Requested-With');
next();
});
app.use( bodyParser.json() ); // to support JSON-encoded bodies
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ // to support URL-encoded bodies
extended: true
}));
app.post('/appculture', function (req, res) {
var currentCulture = `${req.body.text} from Node.js`;
req.body.text = `${req.body.text} from Node.js`;
res.send(req.body)
})
app.listen(8000, () => {
console.log('server started');
})
