How to find query parameters.
You can use the url module:
$ npm install url
And then something like this:
var http = require("http");
var url = require("url");
http.createServer(function(req, res) {
var parsedUrl = url.parse(req.url, true); // true to get query as object
var queryAsObject = parsedUrl.query;
console.log(JSON.stringify(queryAsObject));
res.end(JSON.stringify(queryAsObject));
}).listen(8080);
console.log("Server listening on port 8080");
Test in your browser:
http://localhost:8080/?a=123&b=xxy
For POST requests you can use bodyParser.
