http doesn't get executed

[Davevb]

When I execute nodeJs in cmd, it works. When I call it from c#, it doesn't

return function (tmpData, callback) {
var http = require('http');
var tmpResponse = 0;

            var options = {
                host: '<ipaddress>',
                path: '<path>',
                port: '30200'
            };

            http.get(
                options,
                function (response) {
                    var str = ''
                    response.on('data', function (chunk) {
                        str += chunk;
                    });

                    response.on('end', function () {
                        console.log(str);
                        tmpResponse = 1
                        callback(null, 'tmpResponse: ' + tmpResponse);
                    });
                }
            );
        }

Same issue with me.
I have very simple node js code. It only does a http request.
This is the code file (req1.js):

var http = require('http');

var options = {
  host: '10.10.60.1',
  port: '30200',
  path: '/api/v1/action/action?id=572&actionType=TOGGLE&delayOn=00:00:00&delayOff=00:00:00'
};
http.request(options).end();

Executing this file through cmd (>node req1.js) works perfectly.

Now when trying to execute this file though edje.js from within a console application, it doesn't work.
c# code:

using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using EdgeJs;

class Program
{
    public static async Task Start()
    {
        var func = Edge.Func(@" 
            var http = require('http');

            var options = {
                host: '10.10.60.1',
                port: '30200',
                path: '/api/v1/action/action?id=572&actionType=TOGGLE&delayOn=00:00:00&delayOff=00:00:00'
            };

            return function (data, callback) {
                http.request(options).end();
                callback(null, 'Node.js reply ' + data);
            }
        ");

        Console.WriteLine(await func("test"));
    }

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Start().Wait();
    }
}

The http.request is not working !
I hope that someone can help me, or give me a hint to look further.
thanks

Anyone an idea?

This may be related to #325. See if the latest release (edge@7.10.0) fixes the problem and report back!

[soft-techP]

@dpolivy Updated to edge@7.10.0 but still not working. Only thing I want to do is calling a http request. See code above. I hope you can help me.

[dpolivy]

@soft-techP Are you using the NuGet package, or the actual npm module? I have a feeling the bits in the NuGet package were not properly updated with the fix.

[Davevb]

The crazy thing is, when I add setTimeout(function (){ }, 1); as last line of code, it works...

[dpolivy]

@Davevb That sounds exactly like the issue solved in #325. I think the NuGet package needs to be updated. @tjanczuk will check it tonight.

[soft-techP]

@dpolivy I'm using the NuGet package. Workaround from with setTimeout(function (){ }, 1); from @Davevb works for me too. Though I find this very strange.

[dpolivy]

@Davevb @soft-techP OK, update NuGet package is available which includes the right bits to fix the async problem. I think this should address the problem for you. Give them a try!

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Edge.js/7.10.1

@dpolivy Tested this new version and it works! Thanks very much for your help.

@soft-techP Awesome! Glad we got this figured out.
