https.request does not send body if it is the DELETE method

Question

I’m making a request to make a DELETE, and I have a problem, when I make the request, the bodyParams is not past.

Has anyone ever had a similar problem? On the other side I’m using the express req.body and req.query.

Next is part of the function. The strange thing is that when making a POST, this one works:

function request({
  options,
  method,
  resource,
  queryParams,
  bodyParams,
}) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {

    const stringifyedQueryParams = strigifyQueryParams(queryParams);

    const optionsRequest = {
      ...options,
      method,
      path: `${resource}${stringifyedQueryParams}`,
    };

    const req = https.request(optionsRequest, (res) => {
      res.setEncoding(configs.ENCODING);
      res.on(events.DATA, data => resolve({
        body: data,
        statusCode: res.statusCode,
      }));
    });

    req.on(events.ERROR, error => reject(error) );
    req.write(JSON.strigify(bodyParams));
    req.end();
  });
}

By specification, the requisition DELETEhas no defined semantics for the body. Probably why he’s being ignored.
