Jetty vs. JBoss

Jetty:
Request: {:ssl-client-cert nil, :remote-addr 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1, :scheme :http, :query-params {}, :form-params {}, :body-params {name Test Election, date 2013-08-01}, :request-method :post, :query-string nil, :route-params {}, :content-type application/json, :uri /elections, :server-name localhost, :params {:name Test Election, :date 2013-08-01}, :headers {user-agent Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.71 Safari/537.36, cookie _turbovote_session=BAh7DEkiD3Nlc3Npb25faWQGOgZFRkkiJTI2MTQ1NWQxNDEyNWRmZWQ2YzAwZjFjNjlmMjg2N2IzBjsAVEkiC2xvY2FsZQY7AEZJIgdlbgY7AFRJIgtsYXlvdXQGOwBGSSIRZmllbGRvZnR1cmJvBjsAVEkiEF9jc3JmX3Rva2VuBjsARkkiMWtsNW5TcndPbnFsS2ZFOFcyeFdaU1MzK1lWU1kwQytBY0VPRDZXa053QXM9BjsARkkiHGhhdC10cmljay52aXNpdGVkX3N0ZXBzBjsARlsHOgppbnRybzoLYmFzaWNzSSIcaGF0LXRyaWNrLnNraXBwZWRfc3RlcHMGOwBGWwBJIhFpcF9hZGRyZXNzZXMGOwBGWwciDjEyNy4wLjAuMUkiDmxvY2FsaG9zdAY7AEY%3D--ceabd2996969d8d45481836099f06d623bd5223c, origin chrome-extension://cokgbflfommojglbmbpenpphppikmonn, accept application/json, host localhost:3000, content-type application/json, accept-encoding gzip,deflate,sdch, content-length 48, accept-language en-US,en;q=0.8, connection keep-alive}, :content-length 48, :server-port 3000, :character-encoding nil, :body #<ByteArrayInputStream java.io.ByteArrayInputStream@2b6a702b>}

Notice the body-params which gets merged into the params value.


JBoss:

No body-params, and thus empty params. However, if you read the body InputStream, it has the JSON in it:
(println "Body:"
         (clojure.string/join "\n"
                              (line-seq (clojure.java.io/reader
                                         (get-in ctx [:request :body])))))

prints...

Body: {"name": "Test Election",
       "date": "2013-08-01"}
