Minimal example for using express-body-parser middleware

express-xml-bodyparser-sample.js

var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var http = require('http');
var server = http.createServer(app);
var xmlparser = require('express-xml-bodyparser');

// fyi: it'd be better to attach the parser to wanted routes only
app.use(xmlparser());

app.post('/xml', function(req, res, next) {
  // req.body is an object, so we'll check if it has any (enumerable) properties
  if (Object.keys(req.body).length) {
    console.log('Parsed XML', req.body);
    res.send('OK!');
  } else {
    res.send('Not OK :(');
  }
  console.log('post body length', req.rawBody.length); // this is a string
  return res.end();
});

server.listen(1337);
