NodeJS API Testing - node.js

Question

I have made a local express API using express & nodejs.This is my index.js file with all the express server:
const express = require("express");
const bodyParser = require("body-parser");
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;
//Database models
const Panch = require('./models/panchayat');
// Starting the app
const app = express();
app.use(bodyParser.json());
//Connect to the db
(async() => {
await mongoose.connect("mongodb://localhost/village", {
useNewUrlParser: true,
useUnifiedTopology: true
});
})();
app.post("/api/fetchPanch/", (req, res) => {
const body = req.body;
console.log(body)
// let result = Panch.find({
// "_id": _id
// })
// res.json(result);
});
app.listen(PORT, async() => {
console.log(`Server is up and running on https://localhost:${PORT}`);
});
This is the file in which I am testing the API:
const axios = require('axios');
axios.post('https://localhost:3000/api/fetchPanch', {
'headers': {
'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*'
},
'id': '5fd8eac45f2d508574c57fd5'
})
.then(res => res.json())
.then((res) => {
console.log(res);
})
But I am getting this response in the terminal;:
node:internal/process/promises:227
triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);

I am not able to test my API. Can somebody please help me with this problem I am having, please help.
Thanks in advance,

Answer 1

Hear is the reason why your getting that in the terminal:Your using axios the same way as the javascript built-in fetch API
With the fetch API you do something like this
fetch('http://url',params,body).then(res=>res.json()).then(res=>res).catch(err=>...)
In the first chaining then i did res.json() and in the second one that where i access the actual data.
But in axios not need to do res=res.json() because you can directly access data in the first then like this :
axios.post('http://url',body).then(res=>res.data).catch(err=>...)
The data sent by the server is in the data attribute of the res object

Answer 2

You need to require http if you are making any kind of get/post request.
const http = require('http')
Add this to your code and also replace https with http wherever used.
