A ready to use http and https agent for working with proxies that keeps connections alive!

## Install

```
npm install hpagent
```

## Usage

Based on your infrastructure, you should use the http agent or the https agent.
The following table will help you picking the right one.

| Type              | Proxy  | Server |
|-------------------|--------|--------|
| `HttpProxyAgent`  | HTTP   | HTTP   |
| `HttpProxyAgent`  | HTTPS  | HTTP   |
| `HttpsProxyAgent` | HTTP   | HTTPS  |
| `HttpsProxyAgent` | HTTPS  | HTTPS  |

```js
const { HttpProxyAgent, HttpsProxyAgent } = require('hpagent')
```

Once you have understood the right agent for your use case, you can instance it. It takes the same parameter of the Node.js core's http(s) agent and an additional `proxy` option, which is the url of your proxy.

```js
const http = require('http')
const { HttpProxyAgent } = require('hpagent')

const agent = new HttpProxyAgent({
  keepAlive: true,
  keepAliveMsecs: 1000,
  maxSockets: 256,
  maxFreeSockets: 256,
  proxy: 'http://localhost:8080'
})

http.get('http://localhost:9200', { agent })
    .on('response', console.log)
    .end()
```

If your proxy requires basic authentication, you can configure it in the proxy url:

```js
const http = require('http')
const { HttpProxyAgent } = require('hpagent')

const agent = new HttpProxyAgent({
  keepAlive: true,
  keepAliveMsecs: 1000,
  maxSockets: 256,
  maxFreeSockets: 256,
  proxy: 'http://user:pwd@localhost:8080'
})

http.get('http://localhost:9200', { agent })
    .on('response', console.log)
    .end()
```

You can also pass custom options intended only for the proxy CONNECT request with the `proxyConnectOptions` option,
such as headers or `tls.connect()` options:

```js
const fs = require('fs')
const http = require('http')
const { HttpProxyAgent } = require('hpagent')

const agent = new HttpProxyAgent({
  keepAlive: true,
  keepAliveMsecs: 1000,
  maxSockets: 256,
  maxFreeSockets: 256,
  proxy: 'https://localhost:8080',
  proxyConnectOptions: {
    headers: {
      'Proxy-Authorization': 'Basic YWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuc2VzYW1l',
    },
    ca: [ fs.readFileSync('custom-proxy-cert.pem') ]
  }
})

http.get('http://localhost:9200', { agent })
    .on('response', console.log)
    .end()
```

## Integrations

Following you can find the list of userland http libraries that are tested with this agent.

got('http://localhost:9200', {
  agent: {
    http: new HttpProxyAgent({
      keepAlive: true,
      keepAliveMsecs: 1000,
      maxSockets: 256,
      maxFreeSockets: 256,
      scheduling: 'lifo',
      proxy: 'http://localhost:8080'
    })
  }
})
```

}, function (err, response, data) {
  // handle the response
})
