It is not, specifically because that parser is planned to be phased away from this module, so adding more options would just delay folks to use something more fitted for their custom qs
(or other parser) use-case. See #60
from body-parser.
We are trying to make it easier to make your own custom parsers, essentially bodyParser.text()
and then just pass req.body
string into your parser and then set req.body
to the result. The expectation is that both the deprecation of qs
built-in and the new generic constructor would be in 2.0. It's basically the raw-body
module performing the stream-to-string and then placing the string into the function provided by the user (which could just call qs
or anything with any arguments). It is a much more flexible solution. If you are curious, the main issue with qs
is that there is no standard it is based off of, so there are so many different options to change how it parses, none of which are quite perfect. And there are other modules users want to use instead of qs
for the urlencoded parsing, so we thought it would be a win-win for everyone (parse however you like) 👍

I am currently trying to get everything off of Travis CI by the end of this month, but I'll see what is happening to that generic parser PR here to see if that can be in a 4.x minor Express release for everyone.

Cool, that makes sense. I was kind of confused by the #60 recommendation to use JSON because I'm trying to just send a vanilla HTML POST form rather than having to convert it to JSON on the client side :)
But I absolutely understand that a dependency on a kind of "we make our own rules" parser like qs
isn't exactly thrilling either.
And honestly my thinking about how to structure complex form data & then parse it hasn't evolved sufficiently since, uh, 2003 or so, so I could stand to do more thinking anyway.
Good luck with the Travis migration -- I'm literally in the midst of helping ~1000 repos migrate at <dayjob>
. FWIW, Actions is pretty dang nifty.
