body overview
body combinator: sets body on a Req and returns a Req.
Warning: the merging logic had to be “reversed” because of the contravariant nature of Reader and because the execution of combinators is from right to left (function composition).
This leads to a “weird” behavior for which the body provided when Req is run wins over the one set with the combinator.
So, for example, if we have:
const body1 = { id: 123, name: 'foo bar' }
const body2 = { id: 456, name: 'baz aaa' }
const request = pipe(appy.post, withBody(body1))
request(['http://some.endpoint', { body: JSON.stringify(body2) }])
when request is ran the underlying fetch call will be made with a "{'id': 456, 'name': 'baz aaa'}" body.
