Usage

It will depend on your scenario, basically the package exports a middleware called bodyParser. This middleware can be used being called and it returns a promise awaiting to receive a request and next parameters. On the end it put's the parsed body if exists at req.body object, all ready to be used.

    import { createServer } from 'node:http';
    import { paramsParser } from '@lottojs/body-parser';

    createServer(
        async (req: IncomingMessage, res: ServerResponse) => {
                ...
                if (['POST', 'PUT', 'PATCH'].includes(req.method)) {
                    bodyParser()(req, next())
                }
                ...
        },
    )
