|
| The enhancement features `keep alive` `http.Agent`. Support `http` and `https`. |
|
|
| ## What's different from original `http.Agent`? |
|
|
| - `keepAlive=true` by default |
| - Disable Nagle's algorithm: `socket.setNoDelay(true)` |
| - Add free socket timeout: avoid long time inactivity socket leak in the free-sockets queue. |
| - Add active socket timeout: avoid long time inactivity socket leak in the active-sockets queue. |
| - TTL for active socket. |
|
|
| ## Node.js version required |
|
|
| Support Node.js >= `8.0.0` |
|
|
| ## Install |
|
|
| ```bash |
| $ npm install agentkeepalive --save |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## new Agent([options]) |
|
|
| * `options` {Object} Set of configurable options to set on the agent. |
| Can have the following fields: |
| * `keepAlive` {Boolean} Keep sockets around in a pool to be used by |
| other requests in the future. Default = `true`. |
| * `keepAliveMsecs` {Number} When using the keepAlive option, specifies the initial delay |
| for TCP Keep-Alive packets. Ignored when the keepAlive option is false or undefined. Defaults to 1000. |
| Default = `1000`. Only relevant if `keepAlive` is set to `true`. |
| * `freeSocketTimeout`: {Number} Sets the free socket to timeout |
| after `freeSocketTimeout` milliseconds of inactivity on the free socket. |
| The default [server-side timeout](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#serverkeepalivetimeout) is 5000 milliseconds, to [avoid ECONNRESET exceptions](https://medium.com/ssense-tech/reduce-networking-errors-in-nodejs-23b4eb9f2d83), we set the default value to `4000` milliseconds. |
| Only relevant if `keepAlive` is set to `true`. |
| * `timeout`: {Number} Sets the working socket to timeout |
| after `timeout` milliseconds of inactivity on the working socket. |
| Default is `freeSocketTimeout * 2` so long as that value is greater than or equal to 8 seconds, otherwise the default is 8 seconds. |
| * `maxSockets` {Number} Maximum number of sockets to allow per |
| host. Default = `Infinity`. |
| * `maxFreeSockets` {Number} Maximum number of sockets (per host) to leave open |
| in a free state. Only relevant if `keepAlive` is set to `true`. |
| Default = `256`. |
| * `socketActiveTTL` {Number} Sets the socket active time to live, even if it's in use. |
| If not set, the behaviour keeps the same (the socket will be released only when free) |
| Default = `null`. |
| |
| ## Usage |
|
|
| ```js |
| const http = require('http'); |
| const HttpAgent = require('agentkeepalive').HttpAgent; |
| |
| const keepaliveAgent = new HttpAgent({ |
| maxSockets: 100, |
| maxFreeSockets: 10, |
| timeout: 60000, // active socket keepalive for 60 seconds |
| freeSocketTimeout: 30000, // free socket keepalive for 30 seconds |
| }); |
| |
| const options = { |
| host: 'cnodejs.org', |
| port: 80, |
| path: '/', |
| method: 'GET', |
| agent: keepaliveAgent, |
| }; |
| |
| const req = http.request(options, res => { |
| console.log('STATUS: ' + res.statusCode); |
| console.log('HEADERS: ' + JSON.stringify(res.headers)); |
| res.setEncoding('utf8'); |
| res.on('data', function (chunk) { |
| console.log('BODY: ' + chunk); |
| }); |
| }); |
| req.on('error', e => { |
| console.log('problem with request: ' + e.message); |
| }); |
| req.end(); |
| |
| setTimeout(() => { |
| if (keepaliveAgent.statusChanged) { |
| console.log('[%s] agent status changed: %j', Date(), keepaliveAgent.getCurrentStatus()); |
| } |
| }, 2000); |
| |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### `getter agent.statusChanged` |
|
|
| counters have change or not after last checkpoint. |
|
|
| ### `agent.getCurrentStatus()` |
|
|
| `agent.getCurrentStatus()` will return a object to show the status of this agent: |
|
|
| ```js |
| { |
| createSocketCount: 10, |
| closeSocketCount: 5, |
| timeoutSocketCount: 0, |
| requestCount: 5, |
| freeSockets: { 'localhost:57479:': 3 }, |
| sockets: { 'localhost:57479:': 5 }, |
| requests: {} |
| } |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### Support `https` |
|
|
| ```js |
| const https = require('https'); |
| const HttpsAgent = require('agentkeepalive').HttpsAgent; |
| |
| const keepaliveAgent = new HttpsAgent(); |
| // https://www.google.com/search?q=nodejs&sugexp=chrome,mod=12&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 |
| const options = { |
| host: 'www.google.com', |
| port: 443, |
| path: '/search?q=nodejs&sugexp=chrome,mod=12&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8', |
| method: 'GET', |
| agent: keepaliveAgent, |
| }; |
| |
| const req = https.request(options, res => { |
| console.log('STATUS: ' + res.statusCode); |
| console.log('HEADERS: ' + JSON.stringify(res.headers)); |
| res.setEncoding('utf8'); |
| res.on('data', chunk => { |
| console.log('BODY: ' + chunk); |
| }); |
| }); |
| |
| req.on('error', e => { |
| console.log('problem with request: ' + e.message); |
| }); |
| req.end(); |
| |
| setTimeout(() => { |
| console.log('agent status: %j', keepaliveAgent.getCurrentStatus()); |
| }, 2000); |
| ``` |
|
|
| ### Support `req.reusedSocket` |
|
|
| This agent implements the `req.reusedSocket` to determine whether a request is send through a reused socket. |
|
|
| When server closes connection at unfortunate time ([keep-alive race](https://code-examples.net/en/q/28a8069)), the http client will throw a `ECONNRESET` error. Under this circumstance, `req.reusedSocket` is useful when we want to retry the request automatically. |
|
|
| ```js |
| const http = require('http'); |
| const HttpAgent = require('agentkeepalive').HttpAgent; |
| const agent = new HttpAgent(); |
| |
| const req = http |
| .get('http://localhost:3000', { agent }, (res) => { |
| // ... |
| }) |
| .on('error', (err) => { |
| if (req.reusedSocket && err.code === 'ECONNRESET') { |
| // retry the request or anything else... |
| } |
| }) |
| ``` |
|
|
| This behavior is consistent with Node.js core. But through `agentkeepalive`, you can use this feature in older Node.js version. |
