@ -36,6 +36,7 @@ Currently the genre listing endpoint also supports these parameters.
The API endpoint to add a new genre accepts a `POST` request on the `/genres` route, and will parse several types of application input, preferring JSON and XML first but falling back to post-form parsing if the client has not specified an appropriate content type for their request.
To give a concrete example using JSON, the following curl request adds a new genre to the database:
`curl -v http://127.0.0.1:8000/genres -X POST --data '{"name": "myfancysound"}' -H "content-type: application/json"`
Note that since the content type is being checked by the API for parsing, you are required to specify a correct one, otherwise you must send post-form data for the API to find your values correctly.
