For some reason this request GET never returns, but only in Node.js. I've tried in browser, curl, httparty, ruby's Net::Http, postman, clojure and they all work fine. Node.js will not.
This will return as you'd expect
echo "require('https').get('https://github.com/jakecraige.json', function(res) { console.log(res); });" | node
This never will return, it eventually throws an ECONNRESET
echo "require('https').get('https://gateway.rpx.realpage.com/rpxgateway/PricingAndAvailability.svc?wsdl', function(res) { console.log(res); });" | node
If anyone could provide some insight into this that would be extremely helpful.
Thanks!
Zyrri in IRC directed me to here which solved the problem.
Looks like it wants SSLv3_method from node.js
$ curl 'https://gateway.rpx.realpage.com/rpxgateway/PricingAndAvailability.svc' -I
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Try providing an error handler and see what you get.
Your code hangs for me whichever URL I pick. I believe that's node trying to make sure we don't exit prematurely, running its event loop just in case. All other techniques you listed are synchronous, not event-driven. Also, res is probably not what you want to print, since it's the node's internal response object. Try this:
cat <<EOF | node
require("https").get("https://github.com/jakecraige.json",
function(res) {
var body = ''
res.
on('data', function(data) { body += data}).
on('end', function() { console.log(body); process.exit(0); });
}
);
EOF
Combining @Constarr links with this original post I have this constructed request getting a valid response.
var https = require('https');
https.globalAgent.options.secureProtocol = 'SSLv3_method';
https.get("https://gateway.rpx.realpage.com/rpxgateway/PricingAndAvailability.svc?wsdl", function(res) {
console.log("Got response: " + res.statusCode);
}).on('error', function(e) {
console.log("Got error: " + e.message);
});
