Koa Body Parser Middleware

JSON →
library 7.0.1 ·javascript
verified Jun 17, 2026

koa-body is a robust middleware for the Koa.js web framework designed to parse various request body types. It supports `multipart/form-data` for file uploads, `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`, and `application/json` payloads. Functionally, it offers similar capabilities to a combination of Express's `bodyParser` and `multer`. The current stable version is 7.0.1, and the project is actively maintained by the Koa community, demonstrating a healthy release cadence with recent updates in 2025. Key differentiators include its seamless integration with Koa's middleware system, comprehensive content-type support, and flexible options for patching the parsed body to Koa's context (`ctx.request.body`) or Node's native request object (`ctx.req.body`), alongside configurable limits for body and file sizes.
