Get form parameters from a post request using spray/scala

scala post akka spray

I'm really new with all this Scala/Spray. With some testing I was able to get parameters from a Get request using the parameters function. However I'm trying to fetch some parameters sent from a POST request on the body of the request. It seems like parameters function is unable to fetch those values.

As an example, I'm trying to get this values "name=john&lastname=smith" from the post request body. What is the best option to get these values?

Thank you

You could use [Form-Field-Filters] to extract parameters from POSTs
