# SOCKS5 HTTPS Client #
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/mattcg/socks5-https-client.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/mattcg/socks5-https-client)
SOCKS v5 HTTPS client implementation in JavaScript for Node.js.
```js
var shttps = require('socks5-https-client');
shttps.get({
hostname: 'encrypted.google.com',
path: '/',
rejectUnauthorized: true // This is the default.
}, function(res) {
res.setEncoding('utf8');
res.on('readable', function() {
console.log(res.read()); // Log response to console.
});
});
```
Specify the `socksHost` and `socksPort` options if your SOCKS server isn't running on `localhost:1080`. Tor runs its SOCKS server on port `9050` by default, for example.
Username and password authentication is supported with the `socksUsername` and `socksPassword` options.
You may also pass a URL as the first argument to `get` or `request`, which will be parsed using `url.parse`.
## Using with Tor ##
Works great for making HTTPS requests through [Tor](https://www.torproject.org/).
Make sure a Tor server is running locally and run `node example/tor https://check.torproject.org/` to test.
## Using with Request ##
To use with [Request](https://github.com/mikeal/request), just pass a reference to the `Agent` constructor..
```js
var Agent = require('socks5-https-client/lib/Agent');
request({
url: 'https://encrypted.google.com/',
strictSSL: true,
agentClass: Agent,
agentOptions: {
socksHost: 'my-tor-proxy-host', // Defaults to 'localhost'.
socksPort: 9050 // Defaults to 1080.
}
}, function(err, res) {
console.log(err || res.body);
});
```
## HTTP ##
This client only provides support for making HTTPS requests. See [socks5-http-client](https://github.com/mattcg/socks5-http-client) for an HTTP implementation.
