Example does not work without curl

[egh]

Versions: Ubuntu 18.04 GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.30) of 2019-09-16

Steps to reproduce:

1. Retrieve request.el: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tkf/emacs-request/master/request.el
2. Open emacs -Q
3. M-x load-library json
4. Open request.el and eval buffer
5. Eval: (setq request-backend 'url-retrieve)
6. Eval:

   (request
   "http://httpbin.org/put"
   :type "PUT"
   :data (json-encode '(("key" . "値1") ("key2" . "値2")))
   :headers '(("Content-Type" . "application/json"))
   :parser 'json-read
   :encoding 'utf-8
   :success (cl-function
          (lambda (&key data &allow-other-keys)
            (message "I sent: %S" (assoc-default 'json data)))))

Expected result: Message I sent: ((key . "値1") (key2 . "値2"))

Actual result: error:

I have the same issue as well. 😕

To answer this question, you will need to encode data with utf8 encoding before send it over with url-retrieve. (encode-coding-string (json-encode '(("key" . "値1") ("key2" . "値2"))) 'utf8 'nocopy)
