I write this: It work fine, you can modify it like this.

     request({
           method: 'POST',
           url: 'http://127.0.0.1:3000' + '/index',
           body: {
           name: "name"
          },
          json: true
          })

I met a similar issue on Win10 after a system update. It was caused by the system proxy settings.

http_proxy=127.0.0.1:8888
https_proxy=127.0.0.1:8888

Change the above environment settings to

http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8888
https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8888

done the job for me.

Btw, if you use git-bash, you can also check the git config.

$git config --list
...
http.sslverify=false
http.proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8888
https.proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8888

Same as in W.Perrin case, I had a cntlm proxy listening on 127.0.0.1. But in my case cntlm appeared to work only without a protocol specified. I also had to adjust http setting for every developer working on the project. So, for dev purposes, I decided to bypass proxy rules. I've followed examples given by the link NodeJS request -- how to disable automatic proxy from environment. Setting NO_PROXY variable resolved my issue.

process.env["NO_PROXY"]="*"
