Node Wisp Server
A wisp protocol server implementation, written in NodeJS.
Usage ✨
Section titled “Usage ✨”You can integrate it into your existing node:http server pretty easily by just adding this to your code
httpServer.on("upgrade", (req, socket, head) => {
wisp.routeRequest(req, socket, head);
});
Migrating while dual wielding bare-server-node 🤺
Section titled “Migrating while dual wielding bare-server-node 🤺”If you’re migrating from bare server but want to retain both, simply use
httpServer.on("upgrade", (req, socket, head) => {
if (bare.shouldRoute(req)) {
bare.routeUpgrade(req, socket, head);
} else {
wisp.routeRequest(req, socket, head);
}
});
wisp-server-node doesn’t need to handle regular requests, just upgrade events.
Is it fast? 🚀
Section titled “Is it fast? 🚀”It’s good enough for testing, it’s easy to integrate into your existing app, and maybe it’s good enough for light production usage, but chances are if you’re at the scale where you’re running a reverse proxy, you should use epoxy-server which will deliver better performance at a lower memory footprint
Is it API stable? 🐎
Section titled “Is it API stable? 🐎”I don’t personally plan on breaking API compatibility, so unless a serial killer is holding my family at gunpoint under the condition of breaking wisp-server-node’s API, probably.
Is it stable stable? 🐎🐎
Section titled “Is it stable stable? 🐎🐎”No. I’m sure you can make it crash given enough effort, but it’s pretty okay stability wise for your average TCP request coming from epoxy client or libcurl.js.
