Do not replace POST with the GET. To be clear, you need both route
definitions.
unless you do something like:
any ['get', 'post'] => '/user' => sub {
};
but you will probably have to add some logic to check the request method so
I recommend just having:
get '/user' => sub {
};
post '/user' => sub {
};
