body as string about homebridge-http-webhooks HOT 7 CLOSED

Same problem here,
I suggest to add a parameter that let the request to send JSON body.
These are the current rows 571-574:

if ((urlMethod === "POST" || urlMethod === "PUT") && urlBody) {
  this.log("Adding Body " + urlBody);
  theRequest.body = urlBody;
}

Adding something like the following should do the trick:

var urlToCall = this.onURL;
var urlMethod = this.onMethod;
var urlBody = this.onBody;
var sendAsJSON = typeof this.onSendAsJSON === 'boolean' ? this.onSendAsJSON : false

// OTHER CODE

if ((urlMethod === "POST" || urlMethod === "PUT") && urlBody) {
  this.log("Adding Body " + urlBody);
  theRequest.body = urlBody;
  theRequest.json = sendAsJSON
}

@xdenneboom Maybe is better to change the title to "Feature request: allow send body as JSON". Or something like that ;-).

@xdenneboom, @matteodisabatino the example provided for the body is a JSON but it's wrong, needs to be like this:

"on_body": "{"on":true}"

sorry about that.
