how to post XML data in node.js http.request

Actually the link given by Andrey Sidorov helped to get it working.This works.

var body = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>' +           '<soap12:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap12="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">'+            '<soap12:Body>......</soap12:Body></soap12:Envelope>';var postRequest = {    host: "service.x.yyy.xa.asmx",    path: "/a.asmx",    port: 80,    method: "POST",    headers: {        'Cookie': "cookie",        'Content-Type': 'text/xml',        'Content-Length': Buffer.byteLength(body)    }};var buffer = "";var req = http.request( postRequest, function( res )    {   console.log( res.statusCode );   var buffer = "";   res.on( "data", function( data ) { buffer = buffer + data; } );   res.on( "end", function( data ) { console.log( buffer ); } );});req.on('error', function(e) {    console.log('problem with request: ' + e.message);});req.write( body );req.end();

http.request returns ClientRequest object which is also a writable stream.Instead of .end() do end(xmlbody) or .write(xmlbody).end()

var request = require("request");request.post({    rejectUnauthorized: false,    url: 'URL',    method: "POST",    headers: {        'Content-Type': 'application/xml',    },    body: '<XML>'}, function (error, response, body) {    if (error) {        // Handle error    } else {        // Handle Response and body    }});
