# protocol
|
||||
|
||||
The `protocol` module can register a new protocol or intercept an existing
|
||||
protocol, so you can customize the response to the requests for various protocols.

The `protocol` module can register a custom protocol or intercept an existing

protocol.

An example of implementing a protocol that has the same effect with the

`file://` protocol:

## protocol.registerProtocol(scheme, handler, callback)
|
||||
## protocol.registerStandardSchemes(schemes)
|
||||
|
||||
* `schemes` Array - Custom schemes to be registered as standard schemes.
|
||||
|
||||
A standard scheme adheres to what RFC 3986 calls
|
||||
[generic URI syntax](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-3). This
|
||||
includes `file:` and `filesystem:`.
|
||||
|
||||
## protocol.registerFileProtocol(scheme, handler[, completion])
|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `handler` Function
|
||||
* `callback` Function
|
||||
* `completion` Function
|
||||
|
||||
Registers a custom protocol of `scheme`, the `handler` would be called with
|
||||
`handler(request)` when the a request with registered `scheme` is made.
|
||||
Registers a protocol of `scheme` that will send file as response, the `handler`
|
||||
will be called with `handler(request, callback)` when a `request` is going to be
|
||||
created with `scheme`, and `completion` will be called with `completion(null)`
|
||||
when `scheme` is successfully registered, or `completion(error)` when failed.
|
||||
|
||||
You need to return a request job in the `handler` to specify which type of
|
||||
response you would like to send.
|
||||
To handle the `request`, the `callback` should be called with either file's path
|
||||
or an object that has `path` property, e.g. `callback(filePath)` or
|
||||
`callback({path: filePath})`.
|
||||
|
||||
When `callback` is called with nothing, or a number, or an object that has
|
||||
`error` property, the `request` will be failed with the `error` number you
|
||||
specified. For the available error numbers you can use, please check:
|
||||
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/net/base/net_error_list.h
|
||||
|
||||
By default the scheme is treated like `http:`, which is parsed differently
|
||||
from protocols that follows "generic URI syntax" like `file:`, so you probably
|
||||
want to call `protocol.registerStandardSchemes` to make your scheme treated as
|
||||
standard scheme.

## protocol.unregisterProtocol(scheme, callback)
|
||||
## protocol.registerBufferProtocol(scheme, handler[, completion])
|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `callback` Function
|
||||
* `handler` Function
|
||||
* `completion` Function
|
||||
|
||||
Registers a protocol of `scheme` that will send `Buffer` as response, the
|
||||
`callback` should be called with either an `Buffer` object, or an object that
|
||||
has `data`, `mimeType`, `chart` properties.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
protocol.registerBufferProtocol('atom', function(request, callback) {
|
||||
callback({mimeType: 'text/html', data: new Buffer('<h5>Response</h5>')});
|
||||
}, function (error) {
|
||||
if (error)
|
||||
console.error('Failed to register protocol')
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## protocol.registerStringProtocol(scheme, handler[, completion])
|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `handler` Function
|
||||
* `completion` Function
|
||||
|
||||
Registers a protocol of `scheme` that will send `String` as response, the
|
||||
`callback` should be called with either a `String`, or an object that
|
||||
has `data`, `mimeType`, `chart` properties.
|
||||
|
||||
## protocol.registerHttpProtocol(scheme, handler[, completion])
|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `handler` Function
|
||||
* `completion` Function
|
||||
|
||||
Registers a protocol of `scheme` that will send a HTTP request as response, the
|
||||
`callback` should be called with an object that has `url`, `method`, `referer`,
|
||||
`session` properties.
|
||||
|
||||
By default the HTTP request will reuse current session, if you want the request
|
||||
to have different session you should specify `session` to `null`.
|
||||
|
||||
## protocol.unregisterProtocol(scheme[, completion])
|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `completion` Function
|
||||
|
||||
Unregisters the custom protocol of `scheme`.
|
||||
|
||||
## protocol.registerStandardSchemes(value)
|
||||
|
||||
* `value` Array
|
||||
|
||||
`value` is an array of custom schemes to be registered as standard schemes.
|
||||
|
||||
A standard scheme adheres to what RFC 3986 calls
|
||||
[generic URI syntax](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-3). This
|
||||
includes `file:` and `filesystem:`.
|
||||
|
||||
## protocol.isHandledProtocol(scheme, callback)
|
||||
## protocol.isProtocolHandled(scheme, callback)
|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `callback` Function
|
||||
|
||||
`callback` returns a boolean whether the `scheme` can be handled already.
|
||||
The `callback` will be called with a boolean that indicates whether there is
|
||||
already a handler for `scheme`.
|
||||
|
||||
## protocol.interceptProtocol(scheme, handler, callback)
|
||||
## protocol.interceptFileProtocol(scheme, handler[, completion])
|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `handler` Function
|
||||
* `callback` Function
|
||||
|
||||
Intercepts an existing protocol with `scheme`, returning `null` or `undefined`
|
||||
in `handler` would use the original protocol handler to handle the request.
|
||||
Intercepts `scheme` protocol and use `handler` as the protocol's new handler
|
||||
which sends file as response.
|
||||
|
||||
## protocol.uninterceptProtocol(scheme, callback)
|
||||
## protocol.interceptStringProtocol(scheme, handler[, completion])
|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `handler` Function
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
which sends String as response.

|
||||
|
||||
* `scheme` String
|
||||
* `handler` Function
|
||||
* `callback` Function
|
||||
|

|
||||
which sends `Buffer` as response.

|
||||
* `handler` Function
|
||||
* `callback` Function

|
||||
which sends a new HTTP request as response.
