// Node.js program to demonstrate the // request.complete Method // Importing http module const http = require( 'http' );
// Setting up PORT const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000; // Creating http Server const httpServer = http.createServer( function (request, response) {
// Checking if message is parsed or not
// by using request.complete Api
const value = request.complete;
// Display result
response.end( "message has been sent : "
+ value, 'utf8' , () => {
console.log( "displaying the result..." );
httpServer.close(() => {
console.log( "server is closed" )
})
});
});
// Listening to http Server httpServer.listen(PORT, () => { console.log( "Server is running at port 3000..." );
}); |

Console Output:
Server is running at port 3000... displaying the result... displaying the result... server is closed server is closed
Now run http://localhost:3000/ in the browser.

Example 2: Filename: index.js
// Node.js program to demonstrate the // request.complete Method // Importing http module const http = require( 'http' );
// Request and response handler const http2Handlers = (request, response) => { // Checking if message is parsed or not
// by using request.complete Api
const value = request.complete;
// Display result
response.end( "message has been sent : "
+ value, 'utf8' , () => {
console.log( "displaying the result..." );
httpServer.close(() => {
console.log( "server is closed" )
})
});
}; // Creating http Server const httpServer = http.createServer( http2Handlers).listen(3000, () => {
console.log( "Server is running at port 3000..." );
