Description

For the javascript-flowtype and typescript-axios generators, a POST request body is automatically passed into JSON.stringify() if the "Content-Type" header is "application/json." Sounds fine, but lets say you're overriding the content-type to something else like "multipart/formdata" by passing a generated header such as the one from the form-data package and it's all-lowercase - it doesn't match! The result is that your formdata (which is supposed to be plain text) gets JSON.stringified into a JSON string.

I don't think HTTP headers are supposed to be case-sensitive so while it might be technically a bit more expensive, I think the code ought to do a case-insensitive detection.

    }
