EasyPost
--------
An easy method for reading POST data in Node.js web applications. EasyPost supports both form submissions and REST client posts. It also provides a single location for maintaining the code that reads POST data, allowing you to enhance it, such as with checks for flooding attacks, etc.
```bash
$ npm install easypost
```
## Usage
```
var easypost = require('easypost');
```
### Reading POST Data From a Form
```
easypost.get(req, res, function (data) {
res.render('index', { txtName: data.txtName });
});
```
### Reading POST Data From a REST Client
```
easypost.get(req, res, function (data) {
data = JSON.parse(data);
res.render('index', { txtName: data.txtName });
});
```
## Notes
In the above examples, the first example assumes your form contains the element:
```
[input type='text' id='txtName' /]
```
The second example assumes a REST client has posted the following data:
```
{"txtName": "My Name"}
```
