How to get rid of Connect 3.0 deprecation alert?

Solution 1:

This is a warning that will go away once Express updates to use Connect 3.0 - as a temporary fix, follow the instructions at the top of https://github.com/senchalabs/connect/wiki/Connect-3.0. Specifically, find this line in your app:

app.use(express.bodyParser());

And replace it with the following (this is what bodyParser will be in 3.0):

app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.urlencoded());

Solution 2:

i'm responsible for this deprecation notice. did you read the wiki? https://github.com/senchalabs/connect/wiki/Connect-3.0

step 1: use each parser directly instead of app.use(express.bodyParser());

app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.urlencoded());

step 2: use a different multipart parser, for e.g: connect-multiparty can be used

app.use(require('connect-multiparty')())

work on connect 3 and express 4 hasn't begun yet because node 0.12 is taking a while to be released. there's nothing to update, yet.

Solution 3:

since express is just a wrapper to connect, i suggest using connect directly.

so instead of: app.use(express.bodyParser());

use:

connect = require('connect');
app.use(connect.json());
app.use(connect.urlencoded());
