Sending form in post request using https library - node.js

Question

I have to call an api, for which we are using request library.
const options = {
uri: 'https://abcd.com',
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Accept': 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer xxxxxxxxx'
},
form: {
'a':1,
'b':2
}
}
request(options, (e, res, data) => {});
How would I rewrite the same using node's https library.
I tried using https library's https.request() with 'POST' type and .write with form object. Didn't work.
Also changed Content-Type to application/x-www-form-urlencoded, didn't work either

Answer 1

This example is from the documentation using the request package ,the form takes a object consisting of key value pair from that of the form
request.post('http://service.com/upload', {form:{key:'value'}})
// or
request.post('http://service.com/upload').form({key:'value'})
// or
request.post({url:'http://service.com/upload', form: {key:'value'}},
function(err,httpResponse,body){ /* ... */ })

You can read the API docs at: https://nodejs.org/api/https.html
Below code should work fine:
const https = require('https')
const data = JSON.stringify({
'a':1,
'b':2
})
const options = {
hostname: 'example.com',
port: 443,
path: '/',
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
'Content-Length': data.length
'Authorization': 'Bearer xxxxxxxxx'
}
}
const req = https.request(options, (res) => {
console.log(`statusCode: ${res.statusCode}`)
res.on('data', (d) => {
process.stdout.write(d)
})
})
req.on('error', (error) => {
console.error(error)
})
req.write(data)
req.end()
