How come only bodyParser.json is exposed?

   February 24, 2021  1 Comment on How come only bodyParser.json is exposed?

This module depends on body-parser and exposes bodyParser.json. However, if someone wanted to get the pure text result of the output, or use another method from body-parser, they’d have to install it themselves. Why not just expose all of the functions and save the user an extra install? Or not expose anything, and make the module lighter?

  1. I think the general idea was to remove all these originally, but the json one was brought back. I looked quickly for the old conversations but it was too long ago for me to remember what to look for.

    I do think, if the choice is to include any, then all should be exposed. But maybe there was some question about this someone else would remember better.
