Question

In a node app I retrieve the content of a request with req.form.complete as follow (very simplified)

app.post('/myaction',  function(req, res){
    req.form.complete(function(err1, fields, files){
        res.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "application/json"});
        if (err1) {
            res.write("KO");
         } else {
            ... check something in db...
            res.write("ok");
         }
         res.end();    
      });
 });

My client never gets a response back. Seems to me the req.form.complete prevent the response from being sent… The idea behind this is to be able to parse the form and retrieve a picture within that form and then perform additional checks in DB before sending a response back.

Any idea to perform this ?

Well in fact I have removed the BodyParser option and used connect-form, it’s working fine like that. Still need to give formidable a shoot.
