Nancy (C#): How do I get my post data?

Question

I\'m using Corona SDK to post data to my C# server:

headers[\"Content-Type\"] = \"application/x-www-form-urlencoded\"
headers[\"Accept-Language\"] = \"en-US\"

l

There is a Nancy extension for this. You will need to include the namespace for it.

using Nancy.Extensions;
var text =  Context.Request.Body.AsString();

I like how concise this is, part of Nancy's super-duper easy path.

But a word of caution! This method leaves the stream at the end, so subsequent calls will return empty string. To fix this, always reset the stream immediately afterwards, like so:

Request.Body.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);

Nancy 2.0 is supposed to correct this so that the stream position is reset by default.
