findprovs returns invalid JSON when using the API

[victorb]

The CLI command findprovs works perfectly fine. Example output:

> $ ipfs dht findprovs QmXFmCEhamPHvpbzQ3HMFABrpAXgE7D9jzp6QtvyC8Xp55                                                                ⬡ 4.0.0

However, when using the API and making the following request:

curl localhost:5001/api/v0/dht/findprovs?arg=QmXFmCEhamPHvpbzQ3HMFABrpAXgE7D9jzp6QtvyC8Xp55

Returns the following invalid JSON https://gist.github.com/VictorBjelkholm/1c459d6710c4e3a762f6

First, all the objects needs to be wrapper in an array. Secondly, between the objects, there has to be a comma.

A third, possibly unrelated issue, is that the response always seems to end with:

{
  "Extra": "routing: not found",
  "ID": "",
  "Responses": null,
  "Type": 3
}

Closing this since seems to be a bug in the node-library
ipfs-inactive/js-ipfs-http-client#76

try using curl on the API directly, if still not sure if it's in go-ipfs or node-ipfs-api
