Scene: adding a PUT route with a bodyParser.json() as middleware.

  • Creates request in Postman as application/json

    GetSyntaxError: Unexpected token "\n

  • Uncertain, tries a few other things (removing middleware, using debugger statements, …)

  • Those being unsuccessul, decides to validate request body
  • Gets:

    :warning: Error:Strings should be wrapped in double quotes.[Code 17, Structure 2]

  • :open_mouth:
  • :%/s/\'/\"/g
  • …
  • PUT route now works! :tada:

TIL: json expects " and not '
