Rocky not working on node@16

[arminrosu]

Hello,

Not sure if this project is still maintained - but we were using it at and the upgrade to node@16 broke it.

const rocky = require('rocky')

const PORT = 8000
const URL = 'https://example.com'

const proxy = rocky()

proxy
  .forward(URL)
  .options({
    debug: true,
    forwardHost: true,
    ignorePath: true,
    secure: false,
    ws: true,
  })
  .on('proxyReq', function (_proxyReq, req, _res, opts) {
    console.log('Proxy request:', req.url, 'to', opts.target)
  })
  .on('proxyRes', function (_proxyRes, req, res) {
    // never gets here
    console.log('Proxy response:', req.url, 'with status', res.statusCode)
  })

proxy.routeAll()

proxy.listen(PORT)
console.log(`Server running on :${PORT}`)

node index.js

Any request results in an ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE. Whereas on node <= 14 it works without a hitch.

Node versions affected:

• 16.0.0
• 16.13.1

Rocky Version:

• 0.4.16

Working on node@14

Hope that helps others too.

Hello! Rocky is not maintained anymore, I would recommend using http-proxy instead, or you might try forking and upgrading rocky dependencies, I suspect this has to do with http-proxy.

@h2non thanks for the quick reply! We're moving to http-proxy / node-http-proxy.

It was odd that it was failing without any error, anywhere; this was odd.

Thanks for all your work on rocky!
