Nodejs HTTP and HTTPS over same port, code not clear
i was going through this code for Nodejs HTTP and HTTPS over same port
link => https://stackoverflow.com/a/23975955
Now, in the code i'm unable to figure out how the proxy is working there
function tcpConnection(conn) {
conn.once('data', function (buf) {
// A TLS handshake record starts with byte 22.
var address = (buf[0] === 22) ? httpsAddress : redirectAddress;
var proxy = net.createConnection(address, function () {
proxy.write(buf);
conn.pipe(proxy).pipe(conn);
});
});
}
i can understand that https server is on 3002 and http on 3001. But when variable address has redirectAddress , it pipes buff into new connection on port of redirectaddress. Then how does it transfers to https ?
I mean port 3000 transfers to 3001 and 3002. but how does 3001 transfers to 3002 ? is it because of http redirect here in this part ?
function httpConnection(req, res) {
var host = req.headers['host'];
res.writeHead(301, { "Location": "https://" + host + req.url });
res.end();
}
I tried on google but couldn't find ans to my doubts.
and also can we not reduce number of ports ? like here 2 additional ports have been used .
Also sometimes out of nowhere the server terminates and i get this error
events.js:182
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^
Error: read ECONNRESET
at _errnoException (util.js:1026:11)
at TCP.onread (net.js:606:25)
what could be the posible reason ?
node.js http ssl https http-redirect
