- Now save the file as public-cert.pem
Example 1: Filename: index.js
javascript
// Node.js program to demonstrate the// http2session.remoteSettings methodconst http2 = require('http2');const fs = require('fs');// Private key and public certificate for accessconst options = { key: fs.readFileSync('private-key.pem'), cert: fs.readFileSync('public-cert.pem'),};// Creating and initializing server// by using http2.createServer() methodconst server = http2.createServer(options);server.on('stream', (stream, requestHeaders) => { stream.respond({ ':status': 200, 'content-type': 'text/plain' }); stream.write('hello '); const http2session = stream.session; // Getting remote of this session // by using remoteSettings method const status = http2session.remoteSettings; stream.end("header table size : " + status.headerTableSize); // Stopping the server // by using the close() method server.close(() => { console.log("server localSettings"); })});server.listen(8000);// Creating and initializing client// by using tls.connect() methodconst client = http2.connect(const req = client.request( { ':method': 'GET', ':path': '/' });req.on('response', (responseHeaders) => { console.log("status : " + responseHeaders[":status"]);});req.on('data', (data) => { console.log('Received: %s ', data.toString().replace(/(\n)/gm, ""));});req.on('end', () => { client.close(() => { console.log("client localSettings"); })}); |
Run the index.js file using the following command:
node index.js
Output:
status : 200 Received: hello Received: header table size : 4096 client localSettings server localSettings
