Payload for POST method

[Olgoetz]

Hi,

Is it possible to add a "payload" property to add data when using e.g. POST as http method?

Ah... so right now this provider really only works with query string params... but for a POST you probably need to set a body. makes sense. Do you care much about the name? I would maybe vote for 'body' vs 'payload', but I'm open to suggestions. I don't yet know how soon I'll be able to work on this... just an FYI

I would suggest to mimmick the CLI.

$ curl --help
Usage: curl [options...] <url>
 -d, --data <data>   HTTP POST data
 -f, --fail          Fail silently (no output at all) on HTTP errors
 -h, --help <category>  Get help for commands
 -i, --include       Include protocol response headers in the output
 -o, --output <file>  Write to file instead of stdout
 -O, --remote-name   Write output to a file named as the remote file
 -s, --silent        Silent mode
 -T, --upload-file <file>  Transfer local FILE to destination
 -u, --user <user:password>  Server user and password
 -A, --user-agent <name>  Send User-Agent <name> to server
 -v, --verbose       Make the operation more talkative
 -V, --version       Show version number and quit

This is not the full help, this menu is stripped into categories.
Use "--help category" to get an overview of all categories.
For all options use the manual or "--help all".

So data as a variable.
