A minimal opinionated dependency-free request client for node.js. 

* It supports just GET and POST

* It asks for gzip by default

* When response status is not 200, it returns an error with the status code + the response.

* Default timeout is 5 seconds. When request timesout, error is 'timeout'

```js

var request = require('minimal-request');

request({

  url: 'https://hello.com/blabla',

  method: 'post',

  body: { hi: 'hello' },

  json: true,

  headers: { 'accept-language': 'en-GB' },

  timeout: 5 // seconds

}, function(err, res, details){

  console.log(err);

  // -> something like 404 or null

  console.log(res);

  // -> Something like {hi: 1234}

  console.log(details);

  // -> Something like { statusCode: 200, headers: { ... }}

});

```
