When spdy used with express error occures

[coderaiser]

After installing last versions of spdy v1.8.1 and express v4.8.5 with:

npm i spdy express

When I use this code:

var http        = require('spdy'),
    express     = require('express'),

    app         = express(),
    server      = http.createServer(app);

Error occurs:

      res.statusCode = 404

Hello!

1.8.1 is quite old version, perhaps you should try 1.28.1 ?

[coderaiser]

Looks like I put wrong version, sorry. I use last version from npm and it is 1.28.1.

first arg to require('spdy').createServer is not the requestListener, it's an options object or something. looks like it will work if you do http.createServer(undefined, app)

[coderaiser]

@dougwilson, when I use this code:

 server      = http.createServer({}, app),

This error occures:

tls.js:1124
    throw new Error('Missing PFX or certificate + private key.');

Looks like node-spdy could not work with http only with https?

[indutny]

It could! Just use ssl: false, plain: true options.

[coderaiser]

Thanks a lot, it works :). Could you please add this options to README.md.

[indutny]

What exactly? I think it already mentions plain and ssl options.

[coderaiser]

Yes, its' true. I haven't seen it. Thank you.
