Package Exports

express-query-parser
express-query-parser/dist/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (express-query-parser) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Express-query-parser

A parser helps you parse request for your express server. You may usually encounter some req.query issues like parsing 'null', 'true' and any numbered string. This parser covert them to the right type.

scenarios

query with object

// GET http://localhost/?a=null&b=true&c[d]=false&c[e]=3.14

// without this parser
req.query = {a: 'null', b: 'true', c: {d: 'false', e: '3.14'}}

// with this parser
req.query = {a: null, b: true, c: {d: false, e: 3.14}}

query with array

// GET http://localhost/?a[]=null&a[]=false

// without this parser
req.query = {a: ['null', 'false']}

// with this parser
req.query = {a: [null, false]}
