==========

|
### Turn a function into an [`http.Agent`][http.Agent] instance
|
|
[![Build Status](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-agent-base/workflows/Node%20CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-agent-base/actions?workflow=Node+CI)
|
|
|
|
This module provides an `http.Agent` generator. That is, you pass it an async
|
|
callback function, and it returns a new `http.Agent` instance that will invoke the
|
|
given callback function when sending outbound HTTP requests.
|
|
|
|
#### Some subclasses:
|
|
|
|
Here's some more interesting uses of `agent-base`.

Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Install with `npm`:
|
|
|
|
``` bash
|
|
$ npm install agent-base
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Here's a minimal example that creates a new `net.Socket` connection to the server
|
|
for every HTTP request (i.e. the equivalent of `agent: false` option):
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var net = require('net');
|
|
var tls = require('tls');
|
|
var url = require('url');
|
|
var http = require('http');
|
|
var agent = require('agent-base');
|
|
|
|
var endpoint = 'http://nodejs.org/api/';
|
|
var parsed = url.parse(endpoint);
|
|
|
|
// This is the important part!
|
|
parsed.agent = agent(function (req, opts) {
|
|
var socket;
|
|
// `secureEndpoint` is true when using the https module
|
|
if (opts.secureEndpoint) {
|
|
socket = tls.connect(opts);
|
|
} else {
|
|
socket = net.connect(opts);
|
|
}
|
|
return socket;
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// Everything else works just like normal...
|
|
http.get(parsed, function (res) {
|
|
console.log('"response" event!', res.headers);
|
|
res.pipe(process.stdout);
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Returning a Promise or using an `async` function is also supported:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
agent(async function (req, opts) {
|
|
await sleep(1000);
|
|
// etc…
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Return another `http.Agent` instance to "pass through" the responsibility
|
|
for that HTTP request to that agent:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
agent(function (req, opts) {
|
|
return opts.secureEndpoint ? https.globalAgent : http.globalAgent;
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
API
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Agent(Function callback[, Object options]) → [http.Agent][]
|
|
|
|
Creates a base `http.Agent` that will execute the callback function `callback`
|
|
for every HTTP request that it is used as the `agent` for. The callback function
|
|
is responsible for creating a `stream.Duplex` instance of some kind that will be
|
|
used as the underlying socket in the HTTP request.
|
|
|
|
The `options` object accepts the following properties:
|
|
|
|
* `timeout` - Number - Timeout for the `callback()` function in milliseconds. Defaults to Infinity (optional).
|
|
|
|
The callback function should have the following signature:
|
|
|
|
### callback(http.ClientRequest req, Object options, Function cb) → undefined
|
|
|
|
The ClientRequest `req` can be accessed to read request headers and
|
|
and the path, etc. The `options` object contains the options passed
|
|
to the `http.request()`/`https.request()` function call, and is formatted
|
|
to be directly passed to `net.connect()`/`tls.connect()`, or however
|
|
else you want a Socket to be created. Pass the created socket to
|
|
the callback function `cb` once created, and the HTTP request will
|
|
continue to proceed.
|
|
|
|
If the `https` module is used to invoke the HTTP request, then the
|
|
`secureEndpoint` property on `options` _will be set to `true`_.
