Cannot receive POST object of type Message

[Dekari]

Steps to reproduce the issue

Need a webhook that returns data to a controller with post data of type
Message

The issue is that if you try to get data via the JInput, the data is not there..
also the deprecated:
$post = JRequest::get('post');
is not bringing any data...

Instead you need to use:

$postdata = file_get_contents("php://input");

Which i feel is pretty unsafe..for joomla standards in order to use!

the url that returns that explains the webhook is here:

https://github.com/VivaPayments/API/wiki/Webhooks

Expected result

the actual post data to be inside JINPUT....

the above function with file_get_contents gets the following data:

stdClass Object

Additional comments

I can help in reproduce and check any code suggestions for this in my custom component as it's rather complicated to build up a test environmen!

Using JInput you can access $input->json->get('whatever'). The json in there loads up a JInputJson object that will let you pull that data through the API.
