Package description

What is spdy?

The spdy npm package is designed to support the SPDY and HTTP/2 protocols in Node.js. It provides server and client functionality, allowing developers to create SPDY/HTTP2 servers and clients with ease. This package is particularly useful for improving web application performance by leveraging the advanced features of these protocols, such as multiplexing, server push, and header compression.

What are spdy's main functionalities?

Creating an SPDY/HTTP2 server

This code sample demonstrates how to create a simple SPDY/HTTP2 server using the spdy package along with Express. It sets up a server that listens on port 3000 and serves a simple message over SPDY/HTTP2.

const spdy = require('spdy');
const express = require('express');
const app = express();

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.end('Hello over SPDY/HTTP2');
});

const options = {
  key: fs.readFileSync('<path-to-key>'),
  cert: fs.readFileSync('<path-to-cert>')
};

spdy.createServer(options, app).listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('Server is running on https://localhost:3000');
});

Creating an SPDY/HTTP2 client

This code sample shows how to create an SPDY/HTTP2 client that connects to a server. It demonstrates making a request to the server and handling the response, including reading response headers and data.

const spdy = require('spdy');
const http2 = require('http2');

const client = spdy.connect('https://localhost:3000', (err, socket) => {
  if (err) {
    throw new Error('Connection failed');
  }

  const req = http2.request({
    ':path': '/'
  });

  req.on('response', (headers) => {
    console.log('Response headers:', headers);
  });

  req.setEncoding('utf8');
  req.on('data', (chunk) => console.log(chunk));
  req.end();
});
