Example 1: Filename: index.js
Javascript
// Node.js program to demonstrate the // Http2ServerResponse.removeHeader() method const http2 = require( 'http2' ); const fs = require( 'fs' ); // Private key and public certificate for access const options = { key: fs.readFileSync( 'private-key.pem' ), cert: fs.readFileSync( 'public-cert.pem' ), }; // Request and response handler const http2Handlers = (request, response) => { // Setting new header response.setHeader( 'Content-Type' , 'hello world; charset=utf-8' ); console.log( "Before operation" ) console.log(response.getHeaders()); // Removing particular header // by using removeHeader() method const value = response.removeHeader( 'Content-Type' ) console.log( "\nAfter operation" ) console.log(response.getHeaders()); }; // Creating and initializing server // by using http2.createServer() method const server = http2.createServer(options,http2Handlers); server.on( 'stream' , (stream, requestheader) => { stream.write( 'hello ' ); // Getting all information of this http2stream object // by using state method const status = stream.state; stream.end( "priority weight : " + status.weight); // Stopping the server // by using the close() method server.close(() => { console.log( "server destroyed" ); }) }); server.listen(8000); // Creating and initializing client // by using tls.connect() method const client = http2.connect( 'http://localhost:8000' ); const req = client.request({ ':method' : 'GET' , ':path' : '/' }); req.on( 'response' , (responsesocket) => { console.log( "status : " + responsesocket[ ":status" ]); }); req.on( 'data' , (data) => { console.log( 'Received: %s ' , data.toString().replace(/(\n)/gm, "" )); }); req.on( 'end' , () => { client.close(() => { console.log( "client destroyed" ); }) }); |
Run the index.js file using the following command:
node index.js
Output:
Before operation { 'content-type': 'hello world; charset=utf-8' } After operation {} status : 200 Received: hello Received: priority weight : 16 client destroyed server destroyed

Run the index.js file using the following command:
node index.js
Output:
Before operation { foo: 'bar', 'set-cookie': [ 'foo=bar', 'bar=baz' ] } After operation { 'set-cookie': [ 'foo=bar', 'bar=baz' ] } Received: The sum weight of all Http2Stream : 0 client destroyed server destroyed
