HTTP
To use HTTP server and client one must use ('http');The HTTP interface in node are designed to support many features of the protocol which have been traditionally difficult to use.
In particular large chunk-encoded, messages.The interface is careful to never buffer entire requests or responses.
Node HTTP API
- It is very low level.
- Deals with stream handling and message parsing only.
- Parses a message into headers and body but it does not parse the actual headers or the body
- Listens to the server and respond to them
Cons: We can write our own web server this way hower it would be laborious
Create a simple web server using http
var http =require("http") //create a server //One callback that is trying to handle the entire process //We can write our webserver this way which laborious var server =http.createServer(function (req,res) { console.log(req.url); //Write some information to he browser res.write("<html><body><h1>"+req.url+"</h1></body></html>"); //This would complete the operation res.end() }); //Listen to the server and create a port number server.listen(3000);
Run the Server application
