Content-Type header on json login

[Tseberechts]

How can I get a header 'Content-Type': 'application/json' when logging in with an object?

this.auth.login({email: 'mail@address.com', password: 'FooBar'})

When I do this, no Content-Type header is sent, I really need this, otherwise my request will fail.

Edit: typo

Hi, In the readme there is a section on how to configure the fetch client. Can you please check if that isn't an answer for you? thanks cheers paul.

Hi Paul,

so this is what I do:

activate(){
    this.fetchConfig.configure();
    this.fetchConfig.httpClient.configure(config => {
      config.
        withDefaults({
        headers: {
          'Content-Type': 'application/json',
          'Accept': 'application/json'
        }
      })
    });
}

then this is what my request looks like:

OPTIONS /auth/login HTTP/1.1
Host: [MY HOST NAME]
Connection: keep-alive
Pragma: no-cache
Cache-Control: no-cache
Access-Control-Request-Method: POST
Origin: [ORIGIN NAME]
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.94 Safari/537.36
Access-Control-Request-Headers: accept, content-type
Accept: */*
DNT: 1
Referer: [MY REFERER]
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, sdch
Accept-Language: nl-NL,nl;q=0.8,en-US;q=0.6,en;q=0.4,fr;q=0.2,af;q=0.2

I think the Accept should be application/json and there should be a Content-Type: application/json.

Am I wrong?

cheers, Thomas

Very strange...

You are using isomorphic fetch?

Further investigation leads me to think it's a bug in the aurelia-fetch client. I'll post my issue there.
