http not posting data in node about axios HOT 10 CLOSED

@geddski you will need to specify the request method. If it's not specified it will default to GET.

axios({
  url: 'http://requestb.in/ubgv1aub',
  data: { test: true },
  method: 'post'
});

// or

axios.post('http://requestb.in/ubgv1aub', { test: true });

from axios.

@geddski actually it looks like something is broken. Requests against my local server worked. Trying RequestBin I am getting 0 bytes transferred (I assume you're seeing the same). I will take a look at it tonight.

from axios.

@geddski, I looked into this and I believe it's an issue with RequestBin. First of all, when I try to post, I get a 503 from RequestBin which means "Service Unavailable." I used a different service called apiary.io and it works great. Try this:

var axios = require('axios');

var URL = 'http://kentcdodds.apiary-mock.com/random-user';
var BODY = {
  firstName: 'Joe',
  lastName: 'Moe'
};

function handleSuccess(data) { console.log(data); }
function handleFailure(data) { console.log('error', data); }

// GET
axios.get(URL, { params: BODY })
  .then(handleSuccess)
  .catch(handleFailure);

// POST
axios.post(URL, BODY)
  .then(handleSuccess)
  .catch(handleFailure);

This worked for me...

@kentcdodds maybe requestbin just requires an accurate content length, other services might as well

from axios.

oh, is that the problem?

@kentcdodds @geddski I just added the Content-Length parameter and it seems to have done the trick.

@kentcdodds @geddski I've fixed the issue with Content-Length not being included. I did discover another issue (#9) while fixing this. So long as you are using JSON you will be unaffected.

@mzabriskie
Everything works fine on browser,
but do not have POST payload on node

It started working once i manually specified Content-Type: application/json
Please have this documented / fixed for future devs :)
