agentkeepalive
The enhancement features keep alive
http.Agent
. Support http
and https
.
What's different from original http.Agent
?
keepAlive=true
by default- Disable Nagle's algorithm:
socket.setNoDelay(true)
- Add free socket timeout: avoid long time inactivity socket leak in the free-sockets queue.
- Add active socket timeout: avoid long time inactivity socket leak in the active-sockets queue.
- TTL for active socket.
Node.js version required
Support Node.js >= 8.0.0
Install
$ npm install agentkeepalive --save
new Agent([options])
options
{Object} Set of configurable options to set on the agent. Can have the following fields:keepAlive
{Boolean} Keep sockets around in a pool to be used by other requests in the future. Default =true
.keepAliveMsecs
{Number} When using the keepAlive option, specifies the initial delay for TCP Keep-Alive packets. Ignored when the keepAlive option is false or undefined. Defaults to 1000. Default =1000
. Only relevant ifkeepAlive
is set totrue
.freeSocketTimeout
: {Number} Sets the free socket to timeout afterfreeSocketTimeout
milliseconds of inactivity on the free socket. The default server-side timeout is 5000 milliseconds, to avoid ECONNRESET exceptions, we set the default value to4000
milliseconds. Only relevant ifkeepAlive
is set totrue
.timeout
: {Number} Sets the working socket to timeout aftertimeout
milliseconds of inactivity on the working socket. Default isfreeSocketTimeout * 2
so long as that value is greater than or equal to 8 seconds, otherwise the default is 8 seconds.maxSockets
{Number} Maximum number of sockets to allow per host. Default =Infinity
.maxFreeSockets
{Number} Maximum number of sockets (per host) to leave open in a free state. Only relevant ifkeepAlive
is set totrue
. Default =256
.socketActiveTTL
{Number} Sets the socket active time to live, even if it's in use. If not set, the behaviour keeps the same (the socket will be released only when free) Default =null
.
Usage
const http = require('http');
const Agent = require('agentkeepalive');
const keepaliveAgent = new Agent({
maxSockets: 100,
maxFreeSockets: 10,
timeout: 60000, // active socket keepalive for 60 seconds
freeSocketTimeout: 30000, // free socket keepalive for 30 seconds
});
const options = {
host: 'cnodejs.org',
port: 80,
path: '/',
method: 'GET',
agent: keepaliveAgent,
};
const req = http.request(options, res => {
console.log('STATUS: ' + res.statusCode);
console.log('HEADERS: ' + JSON.stringify(res.headers));
res.setEncoding('utf8');
res.on('data', function (chunk) {
console.log('BODY: ' + chunk);
});
});
req.on('error', e => {
console.log('problem with request: ' + e.message);
});
req.end();
setTimeout(() => {
if (keepaliveAgent.statusChanged) {
console.log('[%s] agent status changed: %j', Date(), keepaliveAgent.getCurrentStatus());
}
}, 2000);
getter agent.statusChanged
counters have change or not after last checkpoint.
agent.getCurrentStatus()
agent.getCurrentStatus()
will return a object to show the status of this agent:
{
createSocketCount: 10,
closeSocketCount: 5,
timeoutSocketCount: 0,
requestCount: 5,
freeSockets: { 'localhost:57479:': 3 },
sockets: { 'localhost:57479:': 5 },
requests: {}
}
Support https
const https = require('https');
const HttpsAgent = require('agentkeepalive').HttpsAgent;
const keepaliveAgent = new HttpsAgent();
// https://www.google.com/search?q=nodejs&sugexp=chrome,mod=12&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
const options = {
host: 'www.google.com',
port: 443,
path: '/search?q=nodejs&sugexp=chrome,mod=12&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8',
method: 'GET',
agent: keepaliveAgent,
};
const req = https.request(options, res => {
console.log('STATUS: ' + res.statusCode);
console.log('HEADERS: ' + JSON.stringify(res.headers));
res.setEncoding('utf8');
res.on('data', chunk => {
console.log('BODY: ' + chunk);
});
});
req.on('error', e => {
console.log('problem with request: ' + e.message);
});
req.end();
setTimeout(() => {
console.log('agent status: %j', keepaliveAgent.getCurrentStatus());
}, 2000);
Support req.reusedSocket
This agent implements the req.reusedSocket
to determine whether a request is send through a reused socket.
When server closes connection at unfortunate time (keep-alive race), the http client will throw a ECONNRESET
error. Under this circumstance, req.reusedSocket
is useful when we want to retry the request automatically.
const http = require('http');
const Agent = require('agentkeepalive');
const agent = new Agent();
const req = http
.get('http://localhost:3000', { agent }, (res) => {
// ...
})
.on('error', (err) => {
if (req.reusedSocket && err.code === 'ECONNRESET') {
// retry the request or anything else...
}
})
This behavior is consistent with Node.js core. But through agentkeepalive
, you can use this feature in older Node.js version.
