Uploading Image from Android client to Node.js server

Issue

I want to upload an image from android device to node server. Currently I am converting the image to Base64 string and passing it using AsyncTask. I don't understand what's happening on the server side. It displays 'undefined' when I log the request body to the console.

This is the android code for converting image to Base64 string and uploading to node server:

This is the console output after receiving the image data:

This is the server code:

What can be done to rectify the error? Any other suggestions are also welcome.

Solution

You need to install body-parser module

To install

 npm i -s body-parser

Then

Set the below config before app.post route

  // support parsing of application/json type post data
  app.use(bodyParser.json());

  //support parsing of application/x-www-form-urlencoded post 
   app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({
      parameterLimit: 100000,
      limit: '150mb',
      extended: true
   }));
