|
|
Gets the entire buffer of a stream either as a `Buffer` or a string. |
|
Validates the stream's length against an expected length and maximum limit. |
|
Ideal for parsing request bodies. |
|
|
|
## Install |
|
|
|
This is a [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) module available through the |
|
[npm registry](https://www.npmjs.com/). Installation is done using the |
|
[`npm install` command](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-npm-packages-locally): |
|
|
|
```sh |
|
$ npm install raw-body |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### TypeScript |
|
|
|
This module includes a [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) |
|
declaration file to enable auto complete in compatible editors and type |
|
information for TypeScript projects. This module depends on the Node.js |
|
types, so install `@types/node`: |
|
|
|
```sh |
|
$ npm install @types/node |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## API |
|
|
|
```js |
|
var getRawBody = require('raw-body') |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### getRawBody(stream, [options], [callback]) |
|
|
|
**Returns a promise if no callback specified and global `Promise` exists.** |
|
|
|
Options: |
|
|
|
- `length` - The length of the stream. |
|
If the contents of the stream do not add up to this length, |
|
an `400` error code is returned. |
|
- `limit` - The byte limit of the body. |
|
This is the number of bytes or any string format supported by |
|
[bytes](https://www.npmjs.com/package/bytes), |
|
for example `1000`, `'500kb'` or `'3mb'`. |
|
If the body ends up being larger than this limit, |
|
a `413` error code is returned. |
|
- `encoding` - The encoding to use to decode the body into a string. |
|
By default, a `Buffer` instance will be returned when no encoding is specified. |
|
Most likely, you want `utf-8`, so setting `encoding` to `true` will decode as `utf-8`. |
|
You can use any type of encoding supported by [iconv-lite](https://www.npmjs.org/package/iconv-lite#readme). |
|
|
|
You can also pass a string in place of options to just specify the encoding. |
|
|
|
If an error occurs, the stream will be paused, everything unpiped, |
|
and you are responsible for correctly disposing the stream. |
|
For HTTP requests, you may need to finish consuming the stream if |
|
you want to keep the socket open for future requests. For streams |
|
that use file descriptors, you should `stream.destroy()` or |
|
`stream.close()` to prevent leaks. |
|
|
|
## Errors |
|
|
|
This module creates errors depending on the error condition during reading. |
|
The error may be an error from the underlying Node.js implementation, but is |
|
otherwise an error created by this module, which has the following attributes: |
|
|
|
* `limit` - the limit in bytes |
|
* `length` and `expected` - the expected length of the stream |
|
* `received` - the received bytes |
|
* `encoding` - the invalid encoding |
|
* `status` and `statusCode` - the corresponding status code for the error |
|
* `type` - the error type |
|
|
|
### Types |
|
|
|
The errors from this module have a `type` property which allows for the programmatic |
|
determination of the type of error returned. |
|
|
|
#### encoding.unsupported |
|
|
|
This error will occur when the `encoding` option is specified, but the value does |
|
not map to an encoding supported by the [iconv-lite](https://www.npmjs.org/package/iconv-lite#readme) |
|
module. |
|
|
|
#### entity.too.large |
|
|
|
This error will occur when the `limit` option is specified, but the stream has |
|
an entity that is larger. |
|
|
|
#### request.aborted |
|
|
|
This error will occur when the request stream is aborted by the client before |
|
reading the body has finished. |
|
|
|
#### request.size.invalid |
|
|
|
This error will occur when the `length` option is specified, but the stream has |
|
emitted more bytes. |
|
|
|
#### stream.encoding.set |
|
|
|
This error will occur when the given stream has an encoding set on it, making it |
|
a decoded stream. The stream should not have an encoding set and is expected to |
|
emit `Buffer` objects. |
|
|
|
#### stream.not.readable |
|
|
|
This error will occur when the given stream is not readable. |
|
|
|
## Examples |
|
|
|
### Simple Express example |
|
|
|
```js |
|
var contentType = require('content-type') |
|
var express = require('express') |
|
var getRawBody = require('raw-body') |
|
|
|
var app = express() |
|
|
|
app.use(function (req, res, next) { |
|
getRawBody(req, { |
|
length: req.headers['content-length'], |
|
limit: '1mb', |
|
encoding: contentType.parse(req).parameters.charset |
|
}, function (err, string) { |
|
if (err) return next(err) |
|
req.text = string |
|
next() |
|
}) |
|
}) |
|
|
|
// now access req.text |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### Simple Koa example |
|
|
|
```js |
|
var contentType = require('content-type') |
|
var getRawBody = require('raw-body') |
|
var koa = require('koa') |
|
|
|
var app = koa() |
|
|
|
app.use(function * (next) { |
|
this.text = yield getRawBody(this.req, { |
|
length: this.req.headers['content-length'], |
|
limit: '1mb', |
|
encoding: contentType.parse(this.req).parameters.charset |
|
}) |
|
yield next |
|
}) |
|
|
|
// now access this.text |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### Using as a promise |
|
|
|
To use this library as a promise, simply omit the `callback` and a promise is |
|
returned, provided that a global `Promise` is defined. |
|
|
|
```js |
|
var getRawBody = require('raw-body') |
|
var http = require('http') |
|
|
|
var server = http.createServer(function (req, res) { |
|
getRawBody(req) |
|
.then(function (buf) { |
|
res.statusCode = 200 |
|
res.end(buf.length + ' bytes submitted') |
|
}) |
|
.catch(function (err) { |
|
res.statusCode = 500 |
|
res.end(err.message) |
|
}) |
|
}) |
|
|
|
server.listen(3000) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### Using with TypeScript |
|
|
|
```ts |
|
import * as getRawBody from 'raw-body'; |
|
import * as http from 'http'; |
|
|
|
const server = http.createServer((req, res) => { |
|
getRawBody(req) |
|
.then((buf) => { |
|
res.statusCode = 200; |
|
res.end(buf.length + ' bytes submitted'); |
|
}) |
|
.catch((err) => { |
|
res.statusCode = err.statusCode; |
|
res.end(err.message); |
|
}); |
|
}); |
|
|
|
server.listen(3000); |
|
``` |
