  1. Now save the file as private-key.pem 
  2. Public certificate: Open notepad and copy paste the following key: 
     
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
  1. Now save the file as public-cert.pem
     

Example 1: Filename: index.js 

javascript




// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// http2session.remoteSettings method
 
const http2 = require('http2');
const fs = require('fs');
 
// Private key and public certificate for access
const options = {
  key: fs.readFileSync('private-key.pem'),
  cert: fs.readFileSync('public-cert.pem'),
};
 
// Creating and initializing server
// by using http2.createServer() method
const server = http2.createServer(options);
 
server.on('stream', (stream, requestHeaders) => {
  stream.respond({
    ':status': 200,
    'content-type': 'text/plain'
  });
 
  stream.write('hello ');
 
  const http2session = stream.session;
 
  // Getting remote of this session
  // by using remoteSettings method
  const status = http2session.remoteSettings;
 
  stream.end("header table size : "
    + status.headerTableSize);
 
  // Stopping the server
  // by using the close() method
  server.close(() => {
    console.log("server localSettings");
  })
});
 
server.listen(8000);
 
// Creating and initializing client
// by using tls.connect() method
const client = http2.connect(
 
const req = client.request(
  { ':method': 'GET', ':path': '/' });
 
req.on('response', (responseHeaders) => {
  console.log("status : "
  + responseHeaders[":status"]);
});
 
req.on('data', (data) => {
  console.log('Received: %s ',
  data.toString().replace(/(\n)/gm, ""));
});
 
req.on('end', () => {
  client.close(() => {
    console.log("client localSettings");
  })
});


Run the index.js file using the following command:

node index.js

Output:

status : 200
Received: hello
Received: header table size : 4096
client localSettings
server localSettings

Example 2: Filename: index.js

javascript




// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// http2session.remoteSettings method
 
const http2 = require('http2');
const fs = require('fs');
 
// Private key and public certificate for access
const options = {
  key: fs.readFileSync('private-key.pem'),
  cert: fs.readFileSync('public-cert.pem'),
};
 
// Creating and initializing server
// by using http2.createServer() method
const server = http2.createServer(options);
 
server.on('stream', (stream, requestHeaders) => {
 
  // Getting session object
  // by using session method
  const http2session = stream.session;
 
  // Getting remote of this session
  // by using remoteSettings method
  const status = http2session.remoteSettings;
 
  stream.end("max frame size : "
    + status.maxFrameSize);
 
  // Stopping the server
  // by using the close() method
  server.close(() => {
    console.log("server destroyed");
  })
});
 
server.listen(8000);
 
// Creating and initializing client
// by using tls.connect() method
const client = http2.connect(
 
const req = client.request(
  { ':method': 'GET', ':path': '/' });
 
req.on('data', (data) => {
  console.log('Received: %s ',
  data.toString().replace(/(\n)/gm, ""));
});
 
req.on('end', () => {
  client.close(() => {
    console.log("client destroyed");
  }) 
});


Run the index.js file using the following command:

node index.js

Output:

Received: max frame size : 16384
client destroyed
server destroyed
