Django & TastyPie: request.POST is empty
django, tastypie
Solution
Starting at Django 1.5, `request.POST` does not contain non-form data anymore. They are now in `request.body`.

Problem
I'm trying to do a POST using curl: ``` curl --dump-header - -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data '{"item_id": "1"}' http://www.mylocal.com:8000/api/1/bookmarks/ ``` However, request.POST is always empty. Below is my ModelResource code: ``` class BookmarkResource(ModelResource): class Meta: queryset = Bookmark.objects.all() resource_name = 'bookmarks' fields = ['id', 'tags'] allowed_methods = ['get', 'post', 'delete', 'put'] always_return_data = True authorization= Authorization() include_resource_uri = False def determine_format(self, request): return "application/json" def obj_create(self, bundle, **kwargs): request = bundle.request try: payload = simplejson.loads(request.POST.keys()[0]) except: payload = simplejson.loads(request.POST.keys()) ``` Anybody knows what I'm missing? Thanks in advance.
