on-finished 2.4.1

The on-finished npm package is designed to execute a callback when an HTTP request closes, finishes, or encounters an error. It's a Node.js module that can be used to efficiently manage events related to HTTP requests on your server.

The on-finished npm package can be easily installed using the npm install on-finished command. Once installed, it can be included in your Node.js project with the line of code var onFinished = require('on-finished').

To use on-finished, listeners are attached to requests or responses to listen for their conclusion, using onFinished(res, listener) for responses and onFinished(req, listener) for requests. An example of its usage is as follows:

var onFinished = require('on-finished')

var data = ''

req.setEncoding('utf8')
req.on('data', function (str) {
  data += str
})

onFinished(req, function (err, req) {
  // data is read unless there is an error
})

The package also provides functions to test if a request or response has already finished. These are used like 'onFinished.isFinished(res)' or 'onFinished.isFinished(req)'.

Documentation for the on-finished npm package can be found directly in the readme file on the package's official GitHub page - https://github.com/jshttp/on-finished.git. This readme provides complete documentation on how to install and use the package, along with specifics of its API and some examples of its usage.
