Request body becomes empty for Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8

[woodwo]

Describe the bug I am mocking SOAP 1.1 server. My code under test set header to Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8 (as in spec). With such header my mock body parsing is not working, response.body is empty in logs.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Mock File Content

   
   {{log request.body}}
   HTTP/1.1 200 OK

{ "cid": "{{capture from='body' using='regex' selector='(\d+)<\/customerId>'}}" }

2. Folder Structure `test\POST.mock`
3. Put xml into bug1.xml: 

<?xml version="1.0"?>

1000000000 ``` 4. Execute `curl -vv -H 'Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8' --data-binary "@bug1.xml" -X POST http://localhost:8080/test` against this mock. 5.

It also pass when I changed header to `Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded` **Desktop (please complete the following information):** - OS: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS, environment from docker-compose (shubhendumadhukar/camouflage-filemanager:latest)

I can workaround it by adding app.use(express.text({type: () => {return true}})); after https://github.com/testinggospels/camouflage/blob/develop/src/index.ts#L46

But it surely not the best option as it should be (as I am not the JS developer nor have the express insights =).

That seems like a valid solution. By using express.text() you are parsing the request body into a plain string. If you want to continue using this solution, you may want to inject it as an external middleware.

1. Create a file middleware.js at the root of your camouflage project.
2. Install express globally. npm i -g express
3. Export NODE_PATH. If you are on mac/linux, run

   export NODE_PATH=`npm root -g`

   If you are on windows

   npm root -g
   set NODE_PATH="output of previous command"

4. Modify middleware.js file as follows:

   var require = global.require || global.process.mainModule.constructor._load;
   (() => {
   const express = require('express')
   this.app.use(express.text({ type: () => { return true } }));
   this.app.use("/", this.allRoutes);
   })();

   For more details on middleware injection, refer to the documentation.

Now it seems clear from docs that it can be used in my case too. Issue should be closed now! Thank you for your help.
