The Node.js's missing `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.
## 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`.
* `freeSocketKeepAliveTimeout`: {Number} Sets the free socket to timeout
after `freeSocketKeepAliveTimeout` milliseconds of inactivity on the free socket.
Default is `15000`.
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 `freeSocketKeepAliveTimeout * 2`.
* `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 setted the behaviour continues the same (the socket will be released only when free)
Default = `null`.
## Usage
```js
const http = require('http');
const Agent = require('agentkeepalive');
const keepaliveAgent = new Agent({
maxSockets: 100,
maxFreeSockets: 10,
timeout: 60000,
freeSocketKeepAliveTimeout: 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);
```
