result.body is empty in Node but result.text is present

I am using superagent in https://github.com/tkesgar/miyako for both Node backend and frontend. However, I found a problem when running this part of server code:

superagent.get(`${ENDPOINT}${id}`)
    .query({ access_token : TOKEN })
    .query(fields ? { fields } : {})
    .query(data)
    .then(result => {
      // callback(result.body)
      callback(JSON.parse(result.text))
    })
    .catch(error => errorCallback(error))

In the promise handling, result.body is {}, but result.text contains the full endpoint response (endpoint is Facebook Graph API). .buffer(true) doesn’t work (result.body is still empty), and content-type is already JSON.

I was able to get it working with JSON.parse(result.text), though. Also, I can use result.body on client-side without problems.

I’ll try to reproduce the problem if I have some time.

Environment:

• Node 6.3.0 64-bit
• Windows 10 64-bit

+1 on documentation. -1 on presumptive parsing

The docs mention using req.header('Accept', 'application/json') but this does not seem to be part of the API anymore. I’m using req.set now, though am often receiving a “Bad Request” error from Facebook (but not always).
