SPDY Server on node.js (BETA)

Required node.js version - at least 0.5.0-pre.

Because of libuv integration in node.js core latest version of one is not usable, try this checking out at this commit instead: https://github.com/joyent/node/commit/9812e31

With that module you can create true SPDY servers with natural http module interface and fallback to HTTPS (for browsers that doesn't support SPDY).

It's using SSL's NPN feature that will be available in node.js from 0.5.0-pre version, but you'll need to compile it with latest available version of OpenSSL.

Instruction for setting up development environment can be found in @eee-c article here: http://japhr.blogspot.com/2011/06/setting-up-node-spdy.html

Alternative instructions

  1. grab http://cvs.openssl.org

  2. build it

  3. build node.js with that version of openssl

    ./configure --openssl-includes=/path/to/openssl/include
    --openssl-libpath=/path/to/openssl make install

  4. have fun with SPDY and node.js!

Usage

var options = {
  key: fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/../keys/spdy-key.pem'),
  cert: fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/../keys/spdy-cert.pem'),
  ca: fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/../keys/spdy-csr.pem'),
  NPNProtocols: ['spdy/2']
};

spdy.createServer(options, function(req, res) {
  res.writeHead(200);
  res.end('hello world!');
});

As you can see it provides well known req/res interface for handling requests and responding to them.
