As of node 9.0.0, there is an 'http2' package built-in. You should use that one instead. + +Installation +------------ + +``` +npm install http2 +``` + +API +--- + +The API is very similar to the [standard node.js HTTPS API](http://nodejs.org/api/https.html). The +goal is the perfect API compatibility, with additional HTTP2 related extensions (like server push). + +Detailed API documentation is primarily maintained in the `lib/http.js` file and is [available in +the wiki](https://github.com/molnarg/node-http2/wiki/Public-API) as well. + +Examples +-------- + +### Using as a server ### + +```javascript +var options = { + key: fs.readFileSync('./example/localhost.key'), + cert: fs.readFileSync('./example/localhost.crt') +}; + +require('http2').createServer(options, function(request, response) { + response.end('Hello world!'); +}).listen(8080); +``` + +### Using as a client ### + +```javascript +require('http2').get('https://localhost:8080/', function(response) { + response.pipe(process.stdout); +}); +``` + +### Simple static file server ### + +An simple static file server serving up content from its own directory is available in the `example` +directory. Running the server: + +```bash +$ node ./example/server.js +``` + +### Simple command line client ### + +An example client is also available. Downloading the server's own source code from the server: + +```bash +$ node ./example/client.js 'https://localhost:8080/server.js' >/tmp/server.js +``` + +### Server push ### + +For a server push example, see the source code of the example +[server](https://github.com/molnarg/node-http2/blob/master/example/server.js) and +[client](https://github.com/molnarg/node-http2/blob/master/example/client.js). + +Status +------ + +* ALPN is only supported in node.js >= 5.0 +* Upgrade mechanism to start HTTP/2 over unencrypted channel is not implemented yet + (issue [#4](https://github.com/molnarg/node-http2/issues/4)) +* Other minor features found in + [this list](https://github.com/molnarg/node-http2/issues?labels=feature) are not implemented yet + +Development +----------- + +### Development dependencies ### + +There's a few library you will need to have installed to do anything described in the following +sections. After installing/cloning node-http2, run `npm install` in its directory to install +development dependencies. + +Used libraries: + +* [mocha](http://visionmedia.github.io/mocha/) for tests +* [chai](http://chaijs.com/) for assertions +* [istanbul](https://github.com/gotwarlost/istanbul) for code coverage analysis +* [docco](http://jashkenas.github.io/docco/) for developer documentation +* [bunyan](https://github.com/trentm/node-bunyan) for logging + +For pretty printing logs, you will also need a global install of bunyan (`npm install -g bunyan`). + +### Developer documentation ### + +The developer documentation is generated from the source code using docco and can be viewed online +[here](http://molnarg.github.io/node-http2/doc/). If you'd like to have an offline copy, just run +`npm run-script doc`. + +### Running the tests ### + +It's easy, just run `npm test`. The tests are written in BDD style, so they are a good starting +point to understand the code. + +### Test coverage ### + +To generate a code coverage report, run `npm test --coverage` (which runs very slowly, be patient). +Code coverage summary as of version 3.0.1: +``` +Statements : 92.09% ( 1759/1910 ) +Branches : 82.56% ( 696/843 ) +Functions : 91.38% ( 212/232 ) +Lines : 92.17% ( 1753/1902 ) +``` + +There's a hosted version of the detailed (line-by-line) coverage report +[here](http://molnarg.github.io/node-http2/coverage/lcov-report/lib/). + +### Logging ### + +Logging is turned off by default. You can turn it on by passing a bunyan logger as `log` option when +creating a server or agent. + +When using the example server or client, it's very easy to turn logging on: set the `HTTP2_LOG` +environment variable to `fatal`, `error`, `warn`, `info`, `debug` or `trace` (the logging level). +To log every single incoming and outgoing data chunk, use `HTTP2_LOG_DATA=1` besides +`HTTP2_LOG=trace`. Log output goes to the standard error output. If the standard error is redirected +into a file, then the log output is in bunyan's JSON format for easier post-mortem analysis. + +Running the example server and client with `info` level logging output: + +```bash +$ HTTP2_LOG=info node ./example/server.js +``` + +```bash +$ HTTP2_LOG=info node ./example/client.js 'https://localhost:8080/server.js' >/dev/null +``` + +Contributors +------------ + +The co-maintainer of the project is [Nick Hurley](https://github.com/todesschaf). + +Code contributions are always welcome!
