Example 1: Filename-index.js
Javascript
// Node.js program to demonstrate the // request.setNoDelay() method // Importing http module const http = require( 'http' ); // Create an HTTP server const server = http.createServer((req, res) => { res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type' : 'text/plain' }); res.end( 'okay' ); }); // Now that server is running server.listen(3000, '127.0.0.1' , () => { // Make a request const options = { port: 3000, host: '127.0.0.1' , headers: { 'Connection' : 'Upgrade' , 'Upgrade' : 'websocket' } }; // Getting client request const req = http.request(options); req.host = '127.0.0.1' // Setting the nodelay for the socket // by using setNoDelay method req.setNoDelay( true ); // Display the result console.log( "no delay is set" ) process.exit(0) }); |
Run the index.js file using the following command:
node index.js
Output:
no delay is set
Example 2: Filename-index.js
