Tunnels +> are commonly used to create an end-to-end virtual connection, through +> one or more proxies, which can then be secured using TLS (Transport +> Layer Security, [RFC5246]). + +In Node.js, these request objects come from the `'connect'` event on +the HTTP server. + +When this module is used on a HTTP `CONNECT` request, the request is +considered "finished" immediately, **due to limitations in the Node.js +interface**. This means if the `CONNECT` request contains a request entity, +the request will be considered "finished" even before it has been read. + +There is no such thing as a response object to a `CONNECT` request in +Node.js, so there is no support for one. + +### HTTP Upgrade request + +The meaning of the `Upgrade` header from RFC 7230, section 6.1: + +> The "Upgrade" header field is intended to provide a simple mechanism +> for transitioning from HTTP/1.1 to some other protocol on the same +> connection. + +In Node.js, these request objects come from the `'upgrade'` event on +the HTTP server. + +When this module is used on a HTTP request with an `Upgrade` header, the +request is considered "finished" immediately, **due to limitations in the +Node.js interface**. This means if the `Upgrade` request contains a request +entity, the request will be considered "finished" even before it has been +read. + +There is no such thing as a response object to a `Upgrade` request in +Node.js, so there is no support for one. + +## Example + +The following code ensures that file descriptors are always closed +once the response finishes. + +```js +var destroy = require('destroy') +var fs = require('fs') +var http = require('http') +var onFinished = require('on-finished') + +http.createServer(function onRequest (req, res) { + var stream = fs.createReadStream('package.json') + stream.pipe(res) + onFinished(res, function () { + destroy(stream) + }) +}) +``` + +## License + +[MIT](LICENSE) + +[ci-image]: https://badgen.net/github/checks/jshttp/on-finished/master?label=ci +[ci-url]: https://github.com/jshttp/on-finished/actions/workflows/ci.yml +[coveralls-image]: https://badgen.net/coveralls/c/github/jshttp/on-finished/master +[coveralls-url]: https://coveralls.io/r/jshttp/on-finished?branch=master +[node-image]: https://badgen.net/npm/node/on-finished +[node-url]: https://nodejs.org/en/download +[npm-downloads-image]: https://badgen.net/npm/dm/on-finished +[npm-url]: https://npmjs.org/package/on-finished +[npm-version-image]: https://badgen.net/npm/v/on-finished |
