Add JSON Post/Put support

[cryptiklemur]

Add support for posting/putting JSON.

Would be cool if we could just do this:

p({url: "some url", method: "POST", json: {foo: 'bar'});

Which would set the Content-Type and Accepts headers to application/json

Thanks for the suggestion. This feature already kind of exists! The data phinOptions option is automatically JSON stringified if it's an object. (The Content-Type header isn't automatically set, but that's really easy for developers to do if they'd like.)

See the phinOptions type definition for more details.

@ethanent I think the Content-Type should be added automatically, I've just spent the last 20 minutes trying to understand why the server was ignoring my POST data...

Why close this issue? Any API sending JSON without these headers is totally wrong.

@matteocontrini @thelinuxlich Thanks for the suggestion.

As of [email protected], the Content-Type header is defined automatically for JSON.stringify-ed request bodies. :)
