[nodejs] Making a node.js component

Can you include the code for

// do http request & ...

? And what is the code if do http request fails?

Another point: you don't need

return res.json ..;

Change to

res.json...;

(can view the code here: http://www.codeshare.io/rA1w9)


var testFunc : function(stuff, callback) {

     var result = {
         error: false,
         data: ''
     };

     var post_body_xml = xmlbuilder.buildObject(post_body);

     // An object of options to indicate where to post to
     var post_options = {
         host: api.endpoint,
         path: api.path,
         port: '80',
         method: 'POST',
         headers: {
             'Content-Type': 'text/xml',
             'Content-Length': post_body_xml.length
         }
     };

     // Set up the request
     var post_req = http.request(post_options, function(res) {

         res.setEncoding('utf8');

         res.on('data', function(chunk) {
             result.data += chunk;
         });

         res.on('error', function(e) {

             console.log('problem with request: ' + e.message);
             result = {
                 error: true,
                 data: e.message
             };

         });

         res.on('end', function() {

             xmlparser.addListener('end', function(json_result) {
                 result.data = json_result;
                 //console.log(result);
                 callback(result);
             });

             xmlparser.parseString(result.data);

         });

     });

     // post the data
     post_req.write(post_body_xml);
     post_req.end();

};
