How to pass form data to controller via router?

I have a simple form in index.ejs

<form action="/products/create" method="POST">
<input type="text" placeholder="name" name="name">
<input type="text" placeholder="quote" name="quote">
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>


I have to post this form to database via routes to controller.

I have a product.router.js like below:

router.post('/create', product_controller.product_create);


and inside product_controller function:

exports.product_create = function (req, res) {
let product = new Product(
{
name: req.body.name,
price: req.body.price
}
);

product.save(function (err) {
if (err) {
return next(err);
}
res.send('Product Created successfully');
});

};


Before I was using postman to insert. But now I am trying to post from form. I am a beginner in node js.
