nodejs request library, get the response time

Question

Using the nodejs request library: https://github.com/mikeal/request

var request = require(\'request\');
request(\'http://example.com\', function (er         


        

Answer 1

Something like

var timedReq = function(url, next) {
  var start = new Date();
  request(url, function(err, res, body) {
    res.responseTime = new Date() - start;
    next(err, res, body);
  });
};

will do it for you. This seems small enough that it's probably easier than finding a new library.
