I have the following routing in app.js
app.use("/api/:phone/stuff", userRoutes);
In userRoutes, I have the following
userRoutes.get("/", userController.getStuff);
The client (Android app, retrofit) requests the following url: GET /api/ 155555555/stuff, in userService I have getStuff method which is executed as expected, meaning it routes it well.
in a validation middleware, I see that req.originalUrl contains the url as expected but when viewing req.params, it is an empty object. I was expecting it to link the phone part of the url to :phone param so I will have req.params.phone.
I thought the problem was the sign but it is urlencoded and even without it, it didn't work. What am I missing?
CodePudding user response：
By default express router does not inherit parent router params
const userRoutes = express.Router({ mergeParams: true });
should do the trick
