Creating a Web Server with Node Core (3) - Testing POST eval not working
This code snippet returns error:
node -e "http.request('http://localhost:3000', {method: 'POST'}, (res) => res.pipe(process.stdout)).end()"
PS C:\LFW212\labs\ch-3\http-web-server> node -e "http.request('http://
localhost:3000', {method: 'POST'}, (res) => res.pipe(process.stdout)).end()"
http.request('http://localhost:3000', {method: 'POST'}, (res) => res.p
ipe(process.stdout)).end()
^
ReferenceError: http is not defined
at eval:1:1
at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:129:12)

at eval-wrapper:6:22
at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:75:60)

I can test with separate file "nonget.js" containing:
const http = require('http')
http.request('http://localhost:3000/', { method: 'POST' }, (res) => res.pipe(process.stdout)).end()
What am I doing wrong in the CLI?
