http2: introducing HTTP/2 At long last: The initial *experimental* implementation of HTTP/2. This is an accumulation of the work that has been done in the nodejs/http2 repository, squashed down to a couple of commits. The original commit history has been preserved in the nodejs/http2 repository. This PR introduces the nghttp2 C library as a new dependency. This library provides the majority of the HTTP/2 protocol implementation, with the rest of the code here providing the mapping of the library into a usable JS API. Within src, a handful of new node_http2_*.c and node_http2_*.h files are introduced. These provide the internal mechanisms that interface with nghttp and define the `process.binding('http2')` interface. The JS API is defined within `internal/http2/*.js`. There are two APIs provided: Core and Compat. The Core API is HTTP/2 specific and is designed to be as minimal and as efficient as possible. The Compat API is intended to be as close to the existing HTTP/1 API as possible, with some exceptions. Tests, documentation and initial benchmarks are included. The `http2` module is gated by a new `--expose-http2` command line flag. When used, `require('http2')` will be exposed to users. Note that there is an existing `http2` module on npm that would be impacted by the introduction of this module, which is the main reason for gating this behind a flag. When using `require('http2')` the first time, a process warning will be emitted indicating that an experimental feature is being used. To run the benchmarks, the `h2load` tool (part of the nghttp project) is required: `./node benchmarks/http2/simple.js benchmarker=h2load`. Only two benchmarks are currently available. Additional configuration options to enable verbose debugging are provided: ``` $ ./configure --debug-http2 --debug-nghttp2 $ NODE_DEBUG=http2 ./node ``` The `--debug-http2` configuration option enables verbose debug statements from the `src/node_http2_*` files. The `--debug-nghttp2` enables the nghttp library's own verbose debug output. The `NODE_DEBUG=http2` enables JS-level debug output. The following illustrates as simple HTTP/2 server and client interaction: (The HTTP/2 client and server support both plain text and TLS connections) ```jt client = http2.connect('http://localhost:80'); const req = client.request({ ':path': '/some/path' }); req.on('data', (chunk) => { /* do something with the data */ }); req.on('end', () => { client.destroy(); }); // Plain text (non-TLS server) const server = http2.createServer(); server.on('stream', (stream, requestHeaders) => { stream.respond({ ':status': 200 }); stream.write('hello '); stream.end('world'); }); server.listen(80); ``` ```js const http2 = require('http2'); const client = http2.connect('http://localhost'); ``` Author: Anna Henningsen <anna@addaleax.net> Author: Colin Ihrig <cjihrig@gmail.com> Author: Daniel Bevenius <daniel.bevenius@gmail.com> Author: James M Snell <jasnell@gmail.com> Author: Jun Mukai Author: Kelvin Jin Author: Matteo Collina <matteo.collina@gmail.com> Author: Robert Kowalski <rok@kowalski.gd> Author: Santiago Gimeno <santiago.gimeno@gmail.com> Author: Sebastiaan Deckers <sebdeckers83@gmail.com> Author: Yosuke Furukawa <yosuke.furukawa@gmail.com> PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/14239 Reviewed-By: Anna Henningsen <anna@addaleax.net> Reviewed-By: Colin Ihrig <cjihrig@gmail.com> Reviewed-By: Matteo Collina <matteo.collina@gmail.com>
