Getting 411 Length required from nginx when making a json call - json

Question

Working with a new API -- MemberMouse if anyone cares/knows -- and am stuck on an "411 Length Required" response when making a request. I am successfully making the calls to the API with a php function below:
<?php
$inputParams = "apikey={{key}}&apisecret={{secret}}&";
$inputParams .= "email=ivan#email.com";
$apiCallUrl = "http://www.website.com/wp-content/plugins/membermouse/api/request.php?q=/getMember";
$ch = curl_init($apiCallUrl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $inputParams);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo "RAW Response: ".$result."<br />";
$data = json_decode($result);
echo "<pre>";
var_dump($data);
echo "</pre>";
?>
However I'm building my app in Node.js, and I'm trying to make a comparative call using Node's request library. Here's what I have so far.
var request = require('request');
var options = {
url: 'http://www.website.com/wp-content/plugins/membermouse/api/request.php',
json:true,
multipart: [
{
'content-type': 'application/json',
body: JSON.stringify({
'q': '/getMember',
'apikey': '{{key}}',
'apisecret':'{{secret}}',
'email':'ivan#email.com'
}),
}
],
headers: {
'content-type': 'application/json',
'Connection': 'Keep-Alive',
}
};
function callback(error, response, body) {
console.log(response);
if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
console.log(response);
}
}
request.post(options, callback);
And it refuses to make it past nginx with a 411 Length Required Error. Anyone have any idea on what's going on? Thank you.

Gave up after hours of trying, and opted in for node-curl -- though not ideal, as it ties into OS operations, it did provide a nice way to pull the information I need. For anyone who's interested:
var curl = require('node-curl');
var inputParams = "apikey={{}}&apisecret={{}}&email=ivan#email.com";
var apiCallUrl = "http://www.website.com/wp-content/plugins/membermouse/api/request.php?q=/getMember";
var options = {
'POST':1,
'POSTFIELDS':inputParams,
'HEADER':0,
}
curl(apiCallUrl, options, function(error, body) {
console.log(JSON.parse(body.body)['response_data']);
});
