Why Am getting the request-body content as empty? - node.js

Question

when i submit the register form ,the data from that register page should be posted on the console.. and I try to print that result using "req.body.Username" , it says undefined and when i view the req in console. The body seems to be an empty set like " {} ", how to post my form details in body to view in console and how to get rid of that "undefined" error?

In your app.js, update the register auth from
app.use('', registerRoute);
To
app.use('/soemRoute', registerRoute);
