Answer 1

For what you want I would've used

    app.get('/fruit/:fruitName&:fruitColor', function(request, response) {
       const name = request.params.fruitName 
       const color = request.params.fruitColor 
    });

or better yet

    app.get('/fruit/:fruit', function(request, response) {
       const fruit = request.params.fruit
       console.log(fruit)
    });

where fruit is a object. So in the client app you just call

https://mydomain.dm/fruit/{"name":"My fruit name", "color":"The color of the fruit"}

and as a response you should see:

    //  client side response
    // { name: My fruit name, color:The color of the fruit}

Answer 2

app.get('/fruit/:fruitName/:fruitColor', function(req, res) {
    var data = {
        "fruit": {
            "apple": req.params.fruitName,
            "color": req.params.fruitColor
        }
    }; 

    send.json(data);
});

If that doesn't work, try using console.log(req.params) to see what it is giving you.
