patch

The proxy-backend plugin now supports reviving request bodies that have previously been consumed by an express middleware (e.g. express.json()). This is done by setting reviveConsumedRequestBodies: true on the proxy RouterOptions. In order to preserve the current behavior, the proxy will not revive request bodies by default.

The following is an example of a proxy createRouter invocation that revives request bodies:

const router = await createRouter({
  config,
  logger,
  discovery,
+ reviveConsumedRequestBodies: true,
});
