drive.files.create throws the error: Invalid multipart request with 0 mime parts

With "google-auth-library": "1.3.2" and "googleapis": "27.0.0" installed uploading to drive throws the Invalid multipart request with 0 mime parts error. Here is the code:

const {OAuth2Client} = require('google-auth-library')
const {google} = require('googleapis')

const googleOAuth2Client = new OAuth2Client({clientId: GOOGLE_DRIVE_CLIENT_ID})
googleOAuth2Client.setCredentials(tokens)
const googleDrive = google.drive({
  version: 'v3',
  auth: googleOAuth2Client
})

googleDrive.files.create({
  resource: {
    name: 'test.png',
    parents: [parentId]
  },
  media: {
    mimeType: 'image/png',
    body: fs.createReadStream('/Users/dmitry/Desktop/test.png')
  }
}, function (err, response) {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err)
    reject(err)
    return
  }
  console.log(response.data)
})

As mentioned here and here, it works with "googleapis": "24.0.0", so it looks like the request -> axios change is the reason for this issue. Or am I missing something? There is no much information in the code sample on github (yeah, I realize that all the code samples from docs are currently not working).

This issue was reintroduced after replacing axios with gaxios in v37.0.0 . Again, it only happens in Electron renderer process.

@DSnopov This is my 2nd day being wasted on trying to find a solution for this other than IPC. Any workaround?

UPDATE: Only workaround is to use a custom fork. More details in #2714.
