I want to save req(Request) data in app.get('/') to something. It occurred "TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON"

var express = require('express')
var app = express()
var bodyParser = require('body-parser')
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended: false}))
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
   var string = JSON.stringify(req);
   saveRequest(string)
   res.send("OK")
})
function saveRequest(){
    //...
}

Did you know req data to string? I've already try this code

app.get('/', (req, res) => {

   var string = objToString(req);
   saveRequest(string)
   res.send("OK")

})
function objToString (obj) {
    var str = '';
    for (var p in obj) {
        if (obj.hasOwnProperty(p)) {
            str += p + '::' + obj[p] + '\n';
        }
    }
    return str;
}

it occurred "TypeError: Cannot convert object to primitive value"

I'm not sure why you'd want to save the whole request object but there are node modules available to safely stringify objects that contain circular references such as json-stringify-safe.

Heres an example

let app = require('express')();
let port = process.env.PORT || 3000;
let stringify = require('json-stringify-safe');

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
    console.log(stringify(req));
    res.send("Ok");
})

app.listen(port, () => {
    console.log("Listening on " + port);
})
