# QUIC > Stability: 1 - Experimental The `net` module provides an implementation of the QUIC protocol. To access it, the Node.js binary must be compiled using the `--experimental-quic` configuration flag. ```js const { createQuicSocket } = require('net'); ``` ## Example ```js 'use strict'; const key = getTLSKeySomehow(); const cert = getTLSCertSomehow(); const { createQuicSocket } = require('net'); // Create the QUIC UDP IPv4 socket bound to local IP port 1234 const socket = createQuicSocket({ endpoint: { port: 1234 } }); // Tell the socket to operate as a server using the given // key and certificate to secure new connections, using // the fictional 'hello' application protocol. socket.listen({ key, cert, alpn: 'hello' }); socket.on('session', (session) => { // A new server side session has been created! session.on('secure', () => { // Once the TLS handshake is completed, we can // open streams... const uni = session.openStream({ halfOpen: true }); uni.write('hi '); uni.end('from the server!'); }); // The peer opened a new stream! session.on('stream', (stream) => { // Let's say hello stream.end('Hello World'); // Let's see what the peer has to say... stream.setEncoding('utf8'); stream.on('data', console.log); stream.on('end', () => console.log('stream ended')); }); }); socket.on('listening', () => { // The socket is listening for sessions! }); ``` ## QUIC Basics QUIC is a UDP-based network transport protocol that includes built-in security via TLS 1.3, flow control, error correction, connection migration, multiplexing, and more. Within the Node.js implementation of the QUIC protocol, there are three main components: the `QuicSocket`, the `QuicSession` and the `QuicStream`. ### QuicSocket A `QuicSocket` encapsulates a binding to one or more local UDP ports. It is used to send data to, and receive data from, remote endpoints. Once created, a `QuicSocket` is associated with a local network address and IP port and can act as both a QUIC client and server simultaneously. User code at the JavaScript level interacts with the `QuicSocket` object to: * Query or modified the properties of the local UDP binding; * Create client `QuicSession` instances; * Wait for server `QuicSession` instances; or * Query activity statistics Unlike the `net.Socket` and `tls.TLSSocket`, a `QuicSocket` instance cannot be directly used by user code at the JavaScript level to send or receive data over the network. ### Client and Server QuicSessions A `QuicSession` represents a logical connection between two QUIC endpoints (a client and a server). In the JavaScript API, each is represented by the `QuicClientSession` and `QuicServerSession` specializations. At any given time, a `QuicSession` exists is one of four possible states: * `Initial` - Entered as soon as the `QuicSession` is created. * `Handshake` - Entered as soon as the TLS 1.3 handshake between the client and server begins. The handshake is always initiated by the client. * `Ready` - Entered as soon as the TLS 1.3 handshake completes. Once the `QuicSession` enters the `Ready` state, it may be used to exchange application data using `QuicStream` instances. * `Closed` - Entere as soon as the `QuicSession` connection has been terminated. New instances of `QuicClientSession` are created using the `connect()` function on a `QuicSocket` as in the example below: ```js const { createQuicSocket } = require('net'); // Create a QuicSocket associated with localhost and port 1234 const socket = createQuicSocket({ endpoint: { port: 1234 } }); const client = socket.connect({ address: 'example.com', port: 4567, alpn: 'foo' }); ``` As soon as the `QuicClientSession` is created, the `address` provided in the connect options will be resolved to an IP address (if necessary), and the TLS 1.3 handshake will begin. The `QuicClientSession` cannot be used to exchange application data until after the `'secure'` event has been emitted by the `QuicClientSession` object, signaling the completion of the TLS 1.3 handshake. ```js client.on('secure', () => { // The QuicClientSession can now be used for application data }); ``` New instances of `QuicServerSession` are created internally by the `QuicSocket` if it has been configured to listen for new connections using the `listen()` method. ```js const key = getTLSKeySomehow(); const cert = getTLSCertSomehow(); socket.listen({ key, cert, alpn: 'foo' }); socket.on('session', (session) => { session.on('secure', () => { // The QuicServerSession can now be used for application data }); }); ``` As with client `QuicSession` instances, the `QuicServerSession` cannot be used to exhange application data until the `'secure'` event has been emitted. ### QuicSession and ALPN QUIC uses the TLS 1.3 [ALPN][] ("Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation") extension to identify the application level protocol that is using the QUIC connection. Every `QuicSession` instance has an ALPN identifier that *must* be specified in either the `connect()` or `listen()` options. ALPN identifiers that are known to Node.js (such as the ALPN identifier for HTTP/3) will alter how the `QuicSession` and `QuicStream` objects operate internally, but the QUIC implementation for Node.js has been designed to allow any ALPN to be specified and used. ### QuicStream Once a `QuicSession` transitions to the `Ready` state, `QuicStream` instances may be created and used to exchange application data. On a general level, all `QuicStream` instances are simply Node.js Duplex Streams that allow bidirectional data flow between the QUIC client and server. However, the application protocol negotiated for the `QuicSession` may alter the semantics and operation of a `QuicStream` associated with the session. Specifically, some features of the `QuicStream` (e.g. headers) are enabled only if the application protocol selected is known by Node.js to support those features. Once the `QuicSession` is ready, a `QuicStream` may be created by either the client or server, and may be unidirectional or bidirectional. The `openStream()` method is used to create a new `QuicStream`: ```js // Create a new bidirectional stream const stream1 = session.openStream(); // Create a new unidirectional stream const stream2 = session.openStream({ halfOpen: true }); ``` As suggested by the names, a bidirectional stream allows data to be sent on a stream in both directions, by both client and server, regardless of which peer opened the stream. A unidirectional stream can be written to only by the QuicSession that opened it. The `'stream'` event is emitted by the `QuicSession` when a new `QuicStream` has been initated by the connected peer: ```js session.on('stream', (stream) => { if (stream.bidirectional) { stream.write('Hello World'); stream.end(); } stream.on('data', console.log); stream.on('end', () => {}); }); ``` #### QuicStream Headers Some QUIC application protocols (like HTTP/3) make use of headers. There are four kinds of headers that the Node.js QUIC implementation is capable of handling dependent entirely on known application protocol support: * Informational Headers * Initial Headers * Trailing Headers * Push Headers These categories correlate exactly with the equivalent HTTP concepts: * Informational Headers: Any response headers transmitted within a block of headers using a `1xx` status code. * Initial Headers: HTTP request or response headers * Trailing Headers: A block of headers that follow the body of a request or response. * Push Promise Headers: A block of headers included in a promised push stream. If headers are supported by the application protocol in use for a given `QuicSession`, the `'initialHeaders'`, `'informationalHeaders'`, and `'trailingHeaders'` events will be emitted by the `QuicStream` object when headers are received; and the `submitInformationalHeaders()`, `submitInitialHeaders()`, and `submitTrailingHeaders()` methods can be used to send headers. ## QUIC and HTTP/3 HTTP/3 is an application layer protocol that uses QUIC as the transport. TBD ## QUIC JavaScript API ### net.createQuicSocket(\[options\]) * `options` {Object} * `client` {Object} A default configuration for QUIC client sessions created using `quicsocket.connect()`. * `endpoint` {Object} An object describing the local address to bind to. * `address` {string} The local address to bind to. This may be an IPv4 or IPv6 address or a host name. If a host name is given, it will be resolved to an IP address. * `port` {number} The local port to bind to. * `type` {string} Either `'udp4'` or `'upd6'` to use either IPv4 or IPv6, respectively. **Default**: `'udp4'`. * `ipv6Only` {boolean} If `type` is `'udp6'`, then setting `ipv6Only` to `true` will disable dual-stack support on the UDP binding -- that is, binding to address `'::'` will not make `'0.0.0.0'` be bound. The option is ignored if `type` is `'udp4'`. **Default**: `false`. * `lookup` {Function} A custom DNS lookup function. Default `dns.lookup()`. * `maxConnections` {number} The maximum number of total active inbound connections. * `maxConnectionsPerHost` {number} The maximum number of inbound connections allowed per remote host. Default: `100`. * `maxStatelessResetsPerHost` {number} The maximum number of stateless resets that the `QuicSocket` is permitted to send per remote host. Default: `10`. * `qlog` {boolean} Whether to emit ['qlog'][] events for incoming sessions. (For outgoing client sessions, set `client.qlog`.) Default: `false`. * `retryTokenTimeout` {number} The maximum number of *seconds* for retry token validation. Default: `10` seconds. * `server` {Object} A default configuration for QUIC server sessions. * `validateAddress` {boolean} When `true`, the `QuicSocket` will use explicit address validation using a QUIC `RETRY` frame when listening for new server sessions. Default: `false`. * `validateAddressLRU` {boolean} When `true`, validation will be skipped if the address has been recently validated. Currently, only the 10 most recently validated addresses are remembered. Setting `validateAddressLRU` to `true`, will enable the `validateAddress` option as well. Default: `false`. The `net.createQuicSocket()` function is used to create new `QuicSocket` instances associated with a local UDP address. ### Class: QuicEndpoint The `QuicEndpoint` wraps a local UDP binding used by a `QuicSocket` to send and receive data. A single `QuicSocket` may be bound to multiple `QuicEndpoint` instances at any given time. Users will not create instances of `QuicEndpoint` directly. #### quicendpoint.addMembership(address, iface) * `address` {string} * `iface` {string} Tells the kernel to join a multicast group at the given `multicastAddress` and `multicastInterface` using the `IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP` socket option. If the `multicastInterface` argument is not specified, the operating system will choose one interface and will add membership to it. To add membership to every available interface, call `addMembership()` multiple times, once per interface. #### quicendpoint.address * Type: Address An object containing the address information for a bound `QuicEndpoint`. The object will contain the properties: * `address` {string} The local IPv4 or IPv6 address to which the `QuicEndpoint` is bound. * `family` {string} Either `'IPv4'` or `'IPv6'`. * `port` {number} The local IP port to which the `QuicEndpoint` is bound. If the `QuicEndpoint` is not bound, `quicendpoint.address` is an empty object. #### quicendpoint.bound * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicEndpoint` is bound to the local UDP port. #### quicendpoint.closing * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicEndpoint` is in the process of closing. #### quicendpoint.destroy(\[error\]) * `error` {Object} An `Error` object. Closes and destroys the `QuicEndpoint` instance making it usuable. #### quicendpoint.destroyed * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicEndpoint` has been destroyed. #### quicendpoint.dropMembership(address, iface) * `address` {string} * `iface` {string} Instructs the kernel to leave a multicast group at `multicastAddress` using the `IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP` socket option. This method is automatically called by the kernel when the socket is closed or the process terminates, so most apps will never have reason to call this. If `multicastInterface` is not specified, the operating system will attempt to drop membership on all valid interfaces. #### quicendpoint.fd * Type: {integer} The system file descriptor the `QuicEndpoint` is bound to. This property is not set on Windows. #### quicendpoint.pending * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicEndpoint` is in the process of binding to the local UDP port. #### quicendpoint.ref() #### quicendpoint.setBroadcast(\[on\]) * `on` {boolean} Sets or clears the `SO_BROADCAST` socket option. When set to `true`, UDP packets may be sent to a local interface's broadcast address. #### quicendpoint.setMulticastInterface(iface) * `iface` {string} All references to scope in this section are referring to IPv6 Zone Indices, which are defined by [RFC 4007][]. In string form, an IP with a scope index is written as `'IP%scope'` where scope is an interface name or interface number. Sets the default outgoing multicast interface of the socket to a chosen interface or back to system interface selection. The multicastInterface must be a valid string representation of an IP from the socket's family. For IPv4 sockets, this should be the IP configured for the desired physical interface. All packets sent to multicast on the socket will be sent on the interface determined by the most recent successful use of this call. For IPv6 sockets, multicastInterface should include a scope to indicate the interface as in the examples that follow. In IPv6, individual send calls can also use explicit scope in addresses, so only packets sent to a multicast address without specifying an explicit scope are affected by the most recent successful use of this call. ##### Examples: IPv6 Outgoing Multicast Interface On most systems, where scope format uses the interface name: ```js const { createQuicSocket } = require('net'); const socket = createQuicSocket({ endpoint: { type: 'udp6', port: 1234 } }); socket.on('ready', () => { socket.endpoints[0].setMulticastInterface('::%eth1'); }); ``` On Windows, where scope format uses an interface number: ```js const { createQuicSocket } = require('net'); const socket = createQuicSocket({ endpoint: { type: 'udp6', port: 1234 } }); socket.on('ready', () => { socket.endpoints[0].setMulticastInterface('::%2'); }); ``` ##### Example: IPv4 Outgoing Multicast Interface All systems use an IP of the host on the desired physical interface: ```js const { createQuicSocket } = require('net'); const socket = createQuicSocket({ endpoint: { type: 'udp4', port: 1234 } }); socket.on('ready', () => { socket.endpoints[0].setMulticastInterface('10.0.0.2'); }); ``` ##### Call Results A call on a socket that is not ready to send or no longer open may throw a Not running Error. If multicastInterface can not be parsed into an IP then an `EINVAL` System Error is thrown. On IPv4, if `multicastInterface` is a valid address but does not match any interface, or if the address does not match the family then a System Error such as `EADDRNOTAVAIL` or `EPROTONOSUP` is thrown. On IPv6, most errors with specifying or omitting scope will result in the socket continuing to use (or returning to) the system's default interface selection. A socket's address family's ANY address (IPv4 `'0.0.0.0'` or IPv6 `'::'`) can be used to return control of the sockets default outgoing interface to the system for future multicast packets. #### quicendpoint.setMulticastLoopback(\[on\]) * `on` {boolean} Sets or clears the `IP_MULTICAST_LOOP` socket option. When set to `true`, multicast packets will also be received on the local interface. #### quicendpoint.setMulticastTTL(ttl) * `ttl` {number} Sets the `IP_MULTICAST_TTL` socket option. While TTL generally stands for "Time to Live", in this context it specifies the number of IP hops that a packet is allowed to travel through, specifically for multicast traffic. Each router or gateway that forwards a packet decrements the TTL. If the TTL is decremented to `0` by a router, it will not be forwarded. The argument passed to `setMulticastTTL()` is a number of hops between `0` and `255`. The default on most systems is `1` but can vary. #### quicendpoint.setTTL(ttl) * `ttl` {number} Sets the `IP_TTL` socket option. While TTL generally stands for "Time to Live", in this context it specifies the number of IP hops that a packet is allowed to travel through. Each router or gateway that forwards a packet decrements the TTL. If the TTL is decremented to `0` by a router, it will not be forwarded. Changing TTL values is typically done for network probes or when multicasting. The argument to `setTTL()` is a number of hops between `1` and `255`. The default on most systems is `64` but can vary. #### quicendpoint.unref() ### Class: QuicSession extends EventEmitter * Extends: {EventEmitter} The `QuicSession` is an abstract base class that defines events, methods, and properties that are shared by both `QuicClientSession` and `QuicServerSession`. Users will not create instances of `QuicSession` directly. #### Event: `'close'` Emitted after the `QuicSession` has been destroyed and is no longer usable. The `'close'` event will not be emitted more than once. #### Event: `'error'` Emitted immediately before the `'close'` event if the `QuicSession` was destroyed with an error. The callback will be invoked with a single argument: * `error` {Object} An `Error` object. The `'error'` event will not be emitted more than once. #### Event: `'keylog'` Emitted when key material is generated or received by a `QuicSession` (typically during or immediately following the handshake process). This keying material can be stored for debugging, as it allows captured TLS traffic to be decrypted. It may be emitted multiple times per `QuicSession` instance. The callback will be invoked with a single argument: * `line` Line of ASCII text, in NSS SSLKEYLOGFILE format. A typical use case is to append received lines to a common text file, which is later used by software (such as Wireshark) to decrypt the traffic: ```js const log = fs.createWriteStream('/tmp/ssl-keys.log', { flags: 'a' }); // ... session.on('keylog', (line) => log.write(line)); ``` The `'keylog'` event will be emitted multiple times. #### Event: `'pathValidation'` Emitted when a path validation result has been determined. This event is strictly informational. When path validation is successful, the `QuicSession` will automatically update to use the new validated path. The callback will be invoked with three arguments: * `result` {string} Either `'failure'` or `'success'`, denoting the status of the path challenge. * `local` {Object} The local address component of the tested path. * `remote` {Object} The remote address component of the tested path.

The `'secure'` event will not be emitted more than once. #### Event: `'stream'` Emitted when a new `QuicStream` has been initiated by the connected peer. The `'stream'` event may be emitted multiple times. #### quicsession.ackDelayRetransmitCount * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of retransmissions caused by delayed acknowledgements. #### quicsession.address * Type: {Object} * `address` {string} The local IPv4 or IPv6 address to which the `QuicSession` is bound. * `family` {string} Either `'IPv4'` or `'IPv6'`. * `port` {number} The local IP port to which the `QuicSocket` is bound.

Such blocks indicate that transmitted stream data is not being consumed quickly enough by the connected peer. #### quicsession.bytesInFlight * Type: {number} The total number of unacknowledged bytes this QUIC endpoint has transmitted to the connected peer. #### quicsession.bytesReceived * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the total number of bytes received from the peer. #### quicsession.bytesSent * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the total number of bytes sent to the peer. #### quicsession.cipher * Type: {Object} * `name` {string} The cipher algorithm name. * `type` {string} The TLS version (currently always `'TLSv1.3'`). Information about the cipher algorithm selected for the session. #### quicsession.close(\[callback\]) * `callback` {Function} Callback invoked when the close operation is completed Begins a graceful close of the `QuicSession`. Existing `QuicStream` instances will be permitted to close naturally. New `QuicStream` instances will not be permitted. Once all `QuicStream` instances have closed, the `QuicSession` instance will be destroyed. #### quicsession.closeCode * Type: {Object} * `code` {number} The error code reported when the `QuicSession` closed. * `family` {number} The type of error code reported (`0` indicates a QUIC protocol level error, `1` indicates a TLS error, `2` represents an application level error.) #### quicsession.closing * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicSession` is in the process of a graceful shutdown. #### quicsession.destroy(\[error\]) * `error` {any} Destroys the `QuicSession` immediately causing the `close` event to be emitted. If `error` is not `undefined`, the `error` event will be emitted immediately before the `close` event. Any `QuicStream` instances that are still opened will be abruptly closed. #### quicsession.destroyed * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicSession` has been destroyed. #### quicsession.duration * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the length of time the `QuicSession` was active. #### quicsession.getCertificate() * Returns: {Object} A [Certificate Object][]. Returns an object representing the *local* certificate. The returned object has some properties corresponding to the fields of the certificate. If there is no local certificate, or if the `QuicSession` has been destroyed, an empty object will be returned. #### quicsession.getPeerCertificate(\[detailed\]) * `detailed` {boolean} Include the full certificate chain if `true`, otherwise include just the peer's certificate. **Default**: `false`. * Returns: {Object} A [Certificate Object][]. Returns an object representing the peer's certificate. If the peer does not provide a certificate, or if the `QuicSession` has been destroyed, an empty object will be returned. If the full certificate chain was requested (`details` equals `true`), each certificate will include an `issuerCertificate` property containing an object representing the issuer's certificate. #### quicsession.handshakeAckHistogram TBD #### quicsession.handshakeContinuationHistogram TBD #### quicsession.handshakeComplete * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the TLS handshake has completed. #### quicsession.handshakeConfirmed * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` when the TLS handshake completion has been confirmed. #### quicsession.handshakeDuration * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the length of time taken to complete the TLS handshake. #### quicsession.idleTimeout * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicSession` was closed due to an idle timeout. #### quicsession.keyUpdateCount * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of key update operations that have occured. #### quicsession.latestRTT * Type: {bigint} The most recently recorded RTT for this `QuicSession`. #### quicsession.lossRetransmitCount * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of lost-packet retransmissions that have been performed on this `QuicSession`. #### quicsession.maxDataLeft * Type: {number} The total number of bytes the `QuicSession` is *currently* allowed to send to the connected peer. #### quicsession.maxInFlightBytes * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the maximum number of in-flight bytes recorded for this `QuicSession`. #### quicsession.maxStreams * Type: {Object} * `uni` {number} The maximum number of unidirectional streams. * `bidi` {number} The maximum number of bidirectional streams. The highest cumulative number of bidirectional and unidirectional streams that can currently be opened. The values are set initially by configuration parameters when the `QuicSession` is created, then updated over the lifespan of the `QuicSession` as the connected peer allows new streams to be created. #### quicsession.minRTT * Type: {bigint} The minimum RTT recorded so far for this `QuicSession`. #### quicsession.openStream(\[options\]) * `options` {Object} * `halfOpen` {boolean} Set to `true` to open a unidirectional stream, `false` to open a bidirectional stream. **Default**: `true`. * `highWaterMark` {number} Total number of bytes that the `QuicStream` may buffer internally before the `quicstream.write()` function starts returning `false`. Default: `16384`. * `defaultEncoding` {string} The default encoding that is used when no encoding is specified as an argument to `quicstream.write()`. Default: `'utf8'`. * Returns: {QuicStream} Returns a new `QuicStream`. An error will be thrown if the `QuicSession` has been destroyed or is in the process of a graceful shutdown. #### quicsession.ping() The `ping()` method will trigger the underlying QUIC connection to serialize any frames currently pending in the outbound queue if it is able to do so. This has the effect of keeping the connection with the peer active and resets the idle and retransmission timers. The `ping()` method is a best-effort that ignores any errors that may occur during the serialization and send operations. There is no return value and there is no way to monitor the status of the `ping()` operation. #### quicsession.peerInitiatedStreamCount * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the total number of `QuicStreams` initiated by the connected peer. #### quicsession.remoteAddress * Type: {Object} * `address` {string} The local IPv4 or IPv6 address to which the `QuicSession` is connected. * `family` {string} Either `'IPv4'` or `'IPv6'`. * `port` {number} The local IP port to which the `QuicSocket` is bound.

On client `QuicSession` instances, set to true on handshake completion if early data is enabled *and* was accepted by the server. ### Class: QuicClientSession extends QuicSession * Extends: {QuicSession} The `QuicClientSession` class implements the client side of a QUIC connection. Instances are created using the `quicsocket.connect()` method. #### Event: `'OCSPResponse'` Emitted when the `QuicClientSession` receives a requested OCSP certificate status response from the QUIC server peer. The callback is invoked with a single argument: * `response` {Buffer} Node.js does not perform any automatic validation or processing of the response. The `'OCSPResponse'` event will not be emitted more than once. #### Event: `'sessionTicket'` The `'sessionTicket'` event is emitted when a new TLS session ticket has been generated for the current `QuicClientSession`. The callback is invoked with two arguments: * `sessionTicket` {Buffer} The serialized session ticket. * `remoteTransportParams` {Buffer} The serialized remote transport parameters provided by the QUIC server. The `sessionTicket` and `remoteTransportParams` are useful when creating a new `QuicClientSession` to more quickly resume an existing session. The `'sessionTicket'` event may be emitted multiple times. #### Event: `'usePreferredAddress'` The `'usePreferredAddress'` event is emitted when the client `QuicSession` is updated to use the server-advertised preferred address. The callback is invoked with a single `address` argument: * `address` {Object} * `address` {string} The preferred host name * `port` {number} The preferred IP port * `type` {string} Either `'udp4'` or `'udp6'`. This event is purely informational and will be emitted only when `preferredAddressPolicy` is set to `'accept'`. The `'usePreferredAddress'` event will not be emitted more than once. #### quicclientsession.ephemeralKeyInfo * Type: {Object} An object representing the type, name, and size of parameter of an ephemeral key exchange in Perfect Forward Secrecy on a client connection. It is an empty object when the key exchange is not ephemeral. The supported types are `'DH'` and `'ECDH'`. The `name` property is available only when type is `'ECDH'`. For example: `{ type: 'ECDH', name: 'prime256v1', size: 256 }`. #### quicclientsession.ready * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicClientSession` is ready for use. False if the `QuicSocket` has not yet been bound. #### quicclientsession.setSocket(socket, callback]) * `socket` {QuicSocket} A `QuicSocket` instance to move this session to. * `callback` {Function} A callback function that will be invoked once the migration to the new `QuicSocket` is complete. Migrates the `QuicClientSession` to the given `QuicSocket` instance. If the new `QuicSocket` has not yet been bound to a local UDP port, it will be bound prior to attempting the migration. If the `QuicClientSession` is not yet ready to migrate, the callback will be invoked with an `Error` using the code `ERR_QUICCLIENTSESSION_FAILED_SETSOCKET`. ### Class: QuicServerSession extends QuicSession * Extends: {QuicSession} The `QuicServerSession` class implements the server side of a QUIC connection. Instances are created internally and are emitted using the `QuicSocket` `'session'` event. #### Event: `'clientHello'` Emitted at the start of the TLS handshake when the `QuicServerSession` receives the initial TLS Client Hello. The event handler is given a callback function that *must* be invoked for the handshake to continue. The callback is invoked with four arguments: * `alpn` {string} The ALPN protocol identifier requested by the client. * `servername` {string} The SNI servername requested by the client. * `ciphers` {string[]} The list of TLS cipher algorithms requested by the client. * `callback` {Function} A callback function that must be called in order for the TLS handshake to continue. The `'clientHello'` event will not be emitted more than once. #### Event: `'OCSPRequest'` Emitted when the `QuicServerSession` has received a OCSP certificate status request as part of the TLS handshake. The callback is invoked with three arguments: * `servername` {string} * `context` {tls.SecureContext} * `callback` {Function} The callback *must* be invoked in order for the TLS handshake to continue. The `'OCSPRequest'` event will not be emitted more than once. #### quicserversession.addContext(servername\[, context\]) * `servername` {string} A DNS name to associate with the given context. * `context` {tls.SecureContext} A TLS SecureContext to associate with the `servername`. TBD ### Class: QuicSocket New instances of `QuicSocket` are created using the `net.createQuicSocket()` method. Once created, a `QuicSocket` can be configured to work as both a client and a server. #### Event: `'busy'` Emitted when the server busy state has been toggled using `quicSocket.setServerBusy()`. The callback is invoked with a single boolean argument indicating `true` if busy status is enabled, `false` otherwise. This event is strictly informational. ```js const { createQuicSocket } = require('net'); const socket = createQuicSocket(); socket.on('busy', (busy) => { if (busy) console.log('Server is busy'); else console.log('Server is not busy'); }); socket.setServerBusy(true); socket.setServerBusy(false); ``` This `'busy'` event may be emitted multiple times. #### Event: `'close'` Emitted after the `QuicSocket` has been destroyed and is no longer usable. The `'close'` event will not be emitted multiple times. #### Event: `'error'` Emitted before the `'close'` event if the `QuicSocket` was destroyed with an `error`. The `'error'` event will not be emitted multiple times. #### Event: `'ready'` Emitted once the `QuicSocket` has been bound to a local UDP port. The `'ready'` event will not be emitted multiple times. #### Event: `'session'` Emitted when a new `QuicServerSession` has been created. The `'session'` event will be emitted multiple times. #### quicsocket.addEndpoint(options) * `options`: {Object} An object describing the local address to bind to. * `address` {string} The local address to bind to. This may be an IPv4 or IPv6 address or a host name. If a host name is given, it will be resolved to an IP address. * `port` {number} The local port to bind to. * `type` {string} Either `'udp4'` or `'upd6'` to use either IPv4 or IPv6, respectively. **Default**: `'udp4'`. * `ipv6Only` {boolean} If `type` is `'udp6'`, then setting `ipv6Only` to `true` will disable dual-stack support on the UDP binding -- that is, binding to address `'::'` will not make `'0.0.0.0'` be bound. The option is ignored if `type` is `'udp4'`. **Default**: `false`. * Returns: {QuicEndpoint} Creates and adds a new `QuicEndpoint` to the `QuicSocket` instance. #### quicsocket.bound * Type: {boolean} Will be `true` if the `QuicSocket` has been successfully bound to the local UDP port. #### quicsocket.boundDuration * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the length of time this `QuicSocket` has been bound to a local port. #### quicsocket.bytesReceived * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of bytes received by this `QuicSocket`. #### quicsocket.bytesSent * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of bytes sent by this `QuicSocket`. #### quicsocket.clientSessions * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of client `QuicSession` instances that have been associated with this `QuicSocket`. #### quicsocket.close(\[callback\]) * `callback` {Function} Gracefully closes the `QuicSocket`. Existing `QuicSession` instances will be permitted to close naturally. New `QuicClientSession` and `QuicServerSession` instances will not be allowed. #### quicsocket.connect(\[options\]) * `options` {Object} * `address` {string} The domain name or IP address of the QUIC server endpoint. * `alpn` {string} An ALPN protocol identifier. * `ca` {string|string[]|Buffer|Buffer[]} Optionally override the trusted CA certificates.

The value can be a string or `Buffer`, or an `Array` of strings and/or `Buffer`s. Any string or `Buffer` can contain multiple PEM CAs concatenated together. The peer's certificate must be chainable to a CA trusted by the server for the connection to be authenticated. When using certificates that are not chainable to a well-known CA, the certificate's CA must be explicitly specified as a trusted or the connection will fail to authenticate. If the peer uses a certificate that doesn't match or chain to one of the default CAs, use the `ca` option to provide a CA certificate that the peer's certificate can match or chain to. For self-signed certificates, the certificate is its own CA, and must be provided. For PEM encoded certificates, supported types are "TRUSTED CERTIFICATE", "X509 CERTIFICATE", and "CERTIFICATE". * `cert` {string|string[]|Buffer|Buffer[]} Cert chains in PEM format. One cert chain should be provided per private key. Each cert chain should consist of the PEM formatted certificate for a provided private `key`, followed by the PEM formatted intermediate certificates (if any), in order, and not including the root CA (the root CA must be pre-known to the peer, see `ca`). When providing multiple cert chains, they do not have to be in the same order as their private keys in `key`. If the intermediate certificates are not provided, the peer will not be able to validate the certificate, and the handshake will fail. * `ciphers` {string} Cipher suite specification, replacing the default.

The key length must be greater than or equal to 1024 bits, otherwise an error will be thrown. It is strongly recommended to use 2048 bits or larger for stronger security. If omitted or invalid, the parameters are silently discarded and DHE ciphers will not be available. * `ecdhCurve` {string} A string describing a named curve or a colon separated list of curve NIDs or names, for example `P-521:P-384:P-256`, to use for ECDH key agreement. Set to `auto` to select the curve automatically. Use [`crypto.getCurves()`][] to obtain a list of available curve names. On recent releases, `openssl ecparam -list_curves` will also display the name and description of each available elliptic curve. **Default:** [`tls.DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVE`][]. * `highWaterMark` {number} Total number of bytes that the `QuicStream` may buffer internally before the `quicstream.write()` function starts returning `false`. Default: `16384`. * `honorCipherOrder` {boolean} Attempt to use the server's cipher suite preferences instead of the client's. When `true`, causes `SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE` to be set in `secureOptions`, see [OpenSSL Options][] for more information. * `idleTimeout` {number} * `ipv6Only` {boolean} If `type` is `'udp6'`, then setting `ipv6Only` to `true` will disable dual-stack support on the UDP binding -- that is, binding to address `'::'` will not make `'0.0.0.0'` be bound. The option is ignored if `type` is `'udp4'`. **Default**: `false`. * `key` {string|string[]|Buffer|Buffer[]|Object[]} Private keys in PEM format. PEM allows the option of private keys being encrypted. Encrypted keys will be decrypted with `options.passphrase`. Multiple keys using different algorithms can be provided either as an array of unencrypted key strings or buffers, or an array of objects in the form `{pem: [, passphrase: ]}`. The object form can only occur in an array. `object.passphrase` is optional. Encrypted keys will be decrypted with `object.passphrase` if provided, or `options.passphrase` if it is not. * `activeConnectionIdLimit` {number} Must be a value between `2` and `8` (inclusive). Default: `2`. * `maxAckDelay` {number} * `maxData` {number} * `maxPacketSize` {number} * `maxStreamDataBidiLocal` {number} * `maxStreamDataBidiRemote` {number} * `maxStreamDataUni` {number} * `maxStreamsBidi` {number} * `maxStreamsUni` {number} * `h3` {Object} HTTP/3 Specific Configuration Options * `qpackMaxTableCapacity` {number} * `qpackBlockedStreams` {number} * `maxHeaderListSize` {number} * `maxPushes` {number} * `passphrase` {string} Shared passphrase used for a single private key and/or a PFX. * `pfx` {string|string[]|Buffer|Buffer[]|Object[]} PFX or PKCS12 encoded private key and certificate chain. `pfx` is an alternative to providing `key` and `cert` individually. PFX is usually encrypted, if it is, `passphrase` will be used to decrypt it. Multiple PFX can be provided either as an array of unencrypted PFX buffers, or an array of objects in the form `{buf: [, passphrase: ]}`. The object form can only occur in an array. `object.passphrase` is optional. Encrypted PFX will be decrypted with `object.passphrase` if provided, or `options.passphrase` if it is not. * `port` {number} The IP port of the remote QUIC server. * `preferredAddressPolicy` {string} `'accept'` or `'reject'`. When `'accept'`, indicates that the client will automatically use the preferred address advertised by the server. * `remoteTransportParams` {Buffer|TypedArray|DataView} The serialized remote transport parameters from a previously established session. These would have been provided as part of the `'sessionTicket'` event on a previous `QuicClientSession` object. * `qlog` {boolean} Whether to emit ['qlog'][] events for this session. Default: `false`. * `requestOCSP` {boolean} If `true`, specifies that the OCSP status request extension will be added to the client hello and an `'OCSPResponse'` event will be emitted before establishing a secure communication. * `secureOptions` {number} Optionally affect the OpenSSL protocol behavior, which is not usually necessary. This should be used carefully if at all! Value is a numeric bitmask of the `SSL_OP_*` options from [OpenSSL Options][]. * `servername` {string} The SNI servername. * `sessionTicket`: {Buffer|TypedArray|DataView} The serialized TLS Session Ticket from a previously established session. These would have been provided as part of the `'sessionTicket`' event on a previous `QuicClientSession` object. * `type`: {string} Identifies the type of UDP socket. The value must either be `'udp4'`, indicating UDP over IPv4, or `'udp6'`, indicating UDP over IPv6. **Default**: `'udp4'`. Create a new `QuicClientSession`.

This should be used carefully if at all! Value is a numeric bitmask of the `SSL_OP_*` options from [OpenSSL Options][]. * `sessionIdContext` {string} Opaque identifier used by servers to ensure session state is not shared between applications. Unused by clients. * `callback` {Function} Listen for new peer-initiated sessions. If a `callback` is given, it is registered as a handler for the `'session'` event. #### quicsocket.listenDuration * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the length of time this `QuicSocket` has been listening for connections. #### quicsocket.listening * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicSocket` is listening for new connections. #### quicsocket.packetsIgnored * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of packets received by this `QuicSocket` that have been ignored. #### quicsocket.packetsReceived * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of packets successfully received by this `QuicSocket`. #### quicsocket.packetsSent * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of packets sent by this `QuicSocket`. #### quicsocket.pending * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the socket is not yet bound to the local UDP port. #### quicsocket.ref() #### quicsocket.serverBusyCount * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of `QuicSession` instances rejected due to server busy status. #### quicsocket.serverSessions * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the number of server `QuicSession` instances that have been associated with this `QuicSocket`. #### quicsocket.setDiagnosticPacketLoss(options) * `options` {Object} * `rx` {number} A value in the range `0.0` to `1.0` that specifies the probability of received packet loss. * `tx` {number} A value in the range `0.0` to `1.0` that specifies the probability of transmitted packet loss. The `quicsocket.setDiagnosticPacketLoss()` method is a diagnostic only tool that can be used to *simulate* packet loss conditions for this `QuicSocket` by artificially dropping received or transmitted packets. This method is *not* to be used in production applications. #### quicsocket.setServerBusy(\[on\]) * `on` {boolean} When `true`, the `QuicSocket` will reject new connections. **Defaults**: `true`. Calling `setServerBusy()` or `setServerBusy(true)` will tell the `QuicSocket` to reject all new incoming connection requests using the `SERVER_BUSY` QUIC error code. To begin receiving connections again, disable busy mode by calling `setServerBusy(false)`. #### quicsocket.statelessResetCount * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` that represents the number of stateless resets that have been sent. #### quicsocket.toggleStatelessReset() * Returns {boolean} `true` if stateless reset processing is enabled; `false` if disabled. By default, a listening `QuicSocket` will generate stateless reset tokens when appropriate. The `disableStatelessReset` option may be set when the `QuicSocket` is created to disable generation of stateless resets. The `toggleStatelessReset()` function allows stateless reset to be turned on and off dynamically through the lifetime of the `QuicSocket`. #### quicsocket.unref(); ### Class: QuicStream extends stream.Duplex * Extends: {stream.Duplex} #### Event: `'blocked'` Emitted when the `QuicStream` has been prevented from sending queued data for the `QuicStream` due to congestion control. #### Event: `'close'` Emitted when the `QuicStream` has is completely closed and the underlying resources have been freed. #### Event: `'data'` #### Event: `'end'` #### Event: `'error'` #### Event: `'informationalHeaders'` Emitted when the `QuicStream` has received a block of informational headers. Support for headers depends entirely on the QUIC Application used as identified by the `alpn` configuration option. In QUIC Applications that support headers, informational header blocks typically come before initial headers. The event handler is invoked with a single argument representing the block of Headers as an object. ```js stream('informationalHeaders', (headers) => { // Use headers }); ``` #### Event: `'initialHeaders'` Emitted when the `QuicStream` has received a block of initial headers. Support for headers depends entirely on the QUIC Application used as identified by the `alpn` configuration option. HTTP/3, for instance, supports two kinds of initial headers: request headers for HTTP request messages and response headers for HTTP response messages. For HTTP/3 QUIC streams, request and response headers are each emitted using the `'initialHeaders'` event. The event handler is invoked with a single argument representing the block of Headers as an object. ```js stream('initialHeaders', (headers) => { // Use headers }); ``` #### Event: `'ready'` Emitted when the underlying `QuicSession` has emitted its `secure` event this stream has received its id, which is accessible as `stream.id` once this event is emitted. #### Event: `'trailingHeaders'` Emitted when the `QuicStream` has received a block of trailing headers. Support for headers depends entirely on the QUIC Application used as identified by the `alpn` configuration option. Trailing headers typically follow any data transmitted on the `QuicStream`, and therefore typically emit sometime after the last `'data'` event but before the `'close'` event. The precise timing may vary from one QUIC application to another. The event handler is invoked with a single argument representing the block of Headers as an object. ```js stream('trailingHeaders', (headers) => { // Use headers }); ``` #### Event: `'readable'` #### quicstream.aborted * Type: {boolean} True if dataflow on the `QuicStream` was prematurely terminated. #### quicstream.bidirectional * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicStream` is bidirectional. #### quicstream.bytesReceived * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the total number of bytes received for this `QuicStream`. #### quicstream.bytesSent * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the total number of bytes sent by this `QuicStream`. #### quicstream.clientInitiated * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicStream` was initiated by a `QuicClientSession` instance. #### quicstream.close(code) * `code` {number} Closes the `QuicStream`. #### quicstream.dataAckHistogram TBD #### quicstream.dataRateHistogram TBD #### quicstream.dataSizeHistogram TBD #### quicstream.duration * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the length of time the `QuicStream` has been active. #### quicstream.finalSize * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` specifying the total number of bytes successfully received by the `QuicStream`. #### quicstream.id * Type: {number} The numeric identifier of the `QuicStream`. #### quicstream.maxAcknowledgedOffset * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the highest acknowledged data offset received for this `QuicStream`. #### quicstream.maxExtendedOffset * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the maximum extended data offset that has been reported to the connected peer. #### quicstream.maxReceivedOffset * Type: {bigint} A `BigInt` representing the maximum received offset for this `QuicStream`. #### quicstream.pending * {boolean} This property is `true` if the underlying session is not finished yet, i.e. before the `'ready'` event is emitted. #### quicstream.pushStream(headers\[, options\]) * `headers` {Object} An object representing a block of headers to be transmitted with the push promise. * `options` {Object} * `highWaterMark` {number} Total number of bytes that the `QuicStream` may buffer internally before the `quicstream.write()` function starts returning `false`. Default: `16384`. * `defaultEncoding` {string} The default encoding that is used when no encoding is specified as an argument to `quicstream.write()`. Default: `'utf8'`. * Returns: {QuicStream} If the selected QUIC application protocol supports push streams, then the `pushStream()` method will initiate a new push promise and create a new unidirectional `QuicStream` object used to fulfill that push. Currently only HTTP/3 supports the use of `pushStream()`. If the selected QUIC application protocol does not support push streams, an error will be thrown. #### quicstream.serverInitiated * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicStream` was initiated by a `QuicServerSession` instance. #### quicstream.session * Type: {QuicSession} The `QuicServerSession` or `QuicClientSession`. #### quicstream.sendFD(fd\[, options\]) * `fd` {number|FileHandle} A readable file descriptor. * `options` {Object} * `offset` {number} The offset position at which to begin reading. Default: `-1`. * `length` {number} The amount of data from the fd to send. Default: `-1`. Instead of using a `Quicstream` as a writable stream, send data from a given file descriptor. If `offset` is set to a non-negative number, reading starts from that position and the file offset will not be advanced. If `length` is set to a non-negative number, it gives the maximum number of bytes that are read from the file. The file descriptor or `FileHandle` is not closed when the stream is closed, so it will need to be closed manually once it is no longer needed. Using the same file descriptor concurrently for multiple streams is not supported and may result in data loss. Re-using a file descriptor after a stream has finished is supported. #### quicstream.sendFile(path\[, options\]) * `path` {string|Buffer|URL} * `options` {Object} * `onError` {Function} Callback function invoked in the case of an error before send. * `offset` {number} The offset position at which to begin reading. Default: `-1`. * `length` {number} The amount of data from the fd to send. Default: `-1`. Instead of using a `QuicStream` as a writable stream, send data from a given file path. The `options.onError` callback will be called if the file could not be opened. If `offset` is set to a non-negative number, reading starts from that position. If `length` is set to a non-negative number, it gives the maximum number of bytes that are read from the file. #### quicstream.submitInformationalHeaders(headers) * `headers` {Object} TBD #### quicstream.submitInitialHeaders(headers) * `headers` {Object} TBD #### quicstream.submitTrailingHeaders(headers) * `headers` {Object} TBD #### quicstream.unidirectional * Type: {boolean} Set to `true` if the `QuicStream` is unidirectional.
