I am trying to post some json to a URL. I saw various other questions about this on stackoverflow but none of them seemed to be clear or work. This is how far I got, I modified the example on the api docs:
var http = require('http');
var google = http.createClient(80, 'server');
var request = google.request('POST', '/get_stuff',
{'host': 'sever', 'content-type': 'application/json'});
request.write(JSON.stringify(some_json),encoding='utf8'); //possibly need to escape as well?
request.end();
request.on('response', function (response) {
console.log('STATUS: ' + response.statusCode);
console.log('HEADERS: ' + JSON.stringify(response.headers));
response.setEncoding('utf8');
response.on('data', function (chunk) {
console.log('BODY: ' + chunk);
});
});
When I post this to the server I get an error telling me that it's not of the json format or that it's not utf8, which they should be. I tried to pull the request url but it is null. I am just starting with nodejs so please be nice.
