Njsping

Njsping is a little module to help to make TCP probe and TCP ping. It's useful to know if some host is available.

Installation

$ npm install --save njsping

Use

var njsping = require('njsping');

//Set the host info and the time (ms) until abort connection requests.
var hostOptions = {
    address: '192.168.0.10', //default is 'localhost'
    port: '85', // default is 80
    timeout: 5000 //default is 1000 ms
};
//Ping
njsping.ping(hostOptions, function(err, connectionResults){
    console.log(connectionResults);
})
/*
The response will be something like
{
    address: '192.168.0.10',
    port: '85',
    isAvailable: true,
    duration: 17
}
*/
