## README

connect-typed-body
===================

Connect middleware to convert parameter values to native types

[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/metakeule/connect-typed-body.png)](https://secure.travis-ci.org/metakeule/connect-typed-body)

It relies on req.body parsed by connect.bodyParser.

    "3" -> 3
    "3.5" -> 3.5 # decimal point is localizable
    "3,545" -> 3545 # thousands seperator is localizable
    "false" -> false
    "true" -> true
    "null" -> null
    "undefined" -> undefined
    "" -> undefined

Usage
-------

Defaults (thousands_seperator = ',', decimal_point = '.')

    var connect = require('connect');
    var typedBody = require('connect-typed-body');
    var app = connect();
    app.use(connect.bodyParser);  // important must come before typedBody
    app.use(typedBody());
    app.use( function(req, res){
      res.end JSON.stringify(req.body)
    }); 

Localized

    var connect = require('connect');
    var typedBody = require('connect-typed-body');
    var app = connect();
    app.use(connect.bodyParser);  // important must come before typedBody
    app.use(typedBody({thousands_seperator: '.', decimal_point: ','}));
    app.use( function(req, res){
      res.end JSON.stringify(req.body)
    }); 

Dynamic overwrite

    var connect = require('connect');
    var typedBody = require('connect-typed-body');
    var app = connect();
    app.use(connect.bodyParser);  // important must come before typedBody
    app.use( function(req, res,next){
      if(req.locale == "de_DE"){
        req.decimal_point = ',' ;
        req.thousands_seperator = '.';
      }
      next(); 
    });
    app.use(typedBody());
    app.use( function(req, res){
      res.end JSON.stringify(req.body)
    });
