Busboy is expecting the Content-Type header key to lower case

See original GitHub issue

Hi guys,

I’m running into troubles when using Busboy to parse a multipart/form-data from serverless on AWS lambda.

My event.headers contains 'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------30333176734664' but the lib fails with Error: Missing Content-Type' message.

It looks like the headers are not case sensitive (https://stackoverflow.com/a/5259004/534838).

Do you want me to push a PR that read the headers in a non-case sensitive way?

Best, Nicolas

Hi mscdex,

Thanks for the quick reply.

This change would allow the lib to be RFC compliant and work and work out of the box with serverless / aws lambda and not be dependant on some node behavior.

Best,

I am getting this issue today and I definitely see content-type all lowercase.
