Make an object from a string in node js

I am sending the string from AngularJS to NodeJS in following form.

"{↵obj:{↵one:string,↵two:integer↵}↵}"//request object from browser console

I want to convert this string in object and use its properties.for this the server side code is following:

var data=req.body.data.replace(/"/g,"");
var str=data.replace(/\n/g," ");
//res.json(str) // returning "{ obj:{ one:string, two:integer } }"
try {
var obj=JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(str)).replace(/"/g,"");
res.json(obj);//returning same "{ obj:{ one:string, two:integer } }"
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
}

I want to get ['users'] by Object.keys[obj] or by any other method want to access the properties of this object.but failed to achieve this.

Many solutions like This couldn't be helpful.any suggestion here??

For example my raw data is like this :

var raw_data = 
    {
        "ok": true,
        "user": {
            "id": "U89MZ4PV2",
            "team_id": "T895HCY8H",
            "name": "hyosoka187",       
        }
    }

then just use JSON.parse(raw_data, true);. So

var real_data = JSON.parse(raw_data, true);
console.log(real_data.user.name);

Result : 

hyosoka187

NOTE : Output of JSON.parse(raw_data, true) :

{
    ok: true,
    user: {
        id: 'U89MZ4PV2',
        team_id: 'T895HCY8H',
        name: 'hyosoka187',       
    }
}

All you need is JSON.parse to convert string to object.

Something like this:

var jsonString='{"obj":{"one":"string","two":"integer"}}';
console.log(JSON.parse(jsonString));

Output:

{ obj: { one: 'string', two: 'integer' } }
