Restify not parsing data from a PUT method resquest

Question

I'm using the latest version (2.6.1) of Restify, and I really don't know what is happening for the Restify not be parsing the data submited on PUT/POST method, it simply doesn't make sense, Restify should be assigning the data to "req.params". I've just lost plenty of time to figured this out and I just didn't, I don't know what is going on. Is this a real issue or do I completely misunderstood the documentation?

So, I execute the follow curl command:

curl -is -X PUT -d "phone=1-800-999-9999" http://localhost:8080/note

And it just returns no params whatsoever, it must be returning the phone value submited on the curl command above:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 4
Date: Wed, 29 Jan 2014 15:14:22 GMT
Connection: keep-alive
"{}"

This is the full code behinded, can't be more simple than this:

var restify = require('restify');
var server = restify.createServer({
  name: 'App',
  version: '1.0.0'
});
server.use(restify.acceptParser(server.acceptable));
server.use(restify.bodyParser());
server.use(restify.queryParser());
function send(req, res, next) {
  res.send(JSON.stringify(req.params));
  return next();
}
var server = restify.createServer();
server.put('/note', send);
server.listen(8080, function() {
  console.log('%s listening at %s', server.name, server.url);
});

Someone has an answer for this behavior? It really frustrating...

Try posting to restify as JSON. Like this:

{ "phone" : "1-800-999-9999" }
