[Haskell-beginners] Network.HTTP.Conduit - body in REST/POST request

[Miro Karpis]

so this did the trick:

test :: IO ()
test = do
  r <- parseUrl $ "http://localhost:3000/readbody"
  let r_ = urlEncodedBody [("?nonce:", "2"), ("&method", "getInfo")] r
  let request = r_
        { requestBody = (RequestBodyBS s)}

  response <- withManager $ httpLbs request
  putStrLn $ show request
  print $ responseBody response
