Cannot post a body that is not an object

Take a look at this fork. I had to make some modifications to allow for XML testing and this might work for you.

I think your fork would work, but I believe there may be a subtle bug. If no URI is passed in and the data is passed in as a string, then the uri variable would be assigned the data.

I think as long as you pass in the uri explicitly, your fix would work.

One hack is to wrap your xml string in a Buffer (new Buffer(xmlString)). From the perspective of api-easy, it behaves like a string but it is an object, so the string logic is not triggered.

You can wrap it as a function, so it looks less ugly.
function xmlBody (xmlString) { return new Buffer(xmlString); }

However, it still does not feel right. I think api-easy is not really intended to be used with XML but only with JSON.
