such that it will be set before the socket is connecting

Fixes #7580

The else branch is unnecessary. You're returning the same thing in both branches.

oh yeah, will fix that

+1 to @cjihrig's comment. Once that is addressed this should be good.

Why change the name?

It used to be optionsPath since the only option was the path. With this change we introduce non-path related options in there, which is why I felt renaming would make sense and I've chosen createConnectionOptions since we pass them to the createConnection function.

To me optionsPath is more general, like 'options for (unix) socket path' as opposed to 'options for TCP socket'. With that in mind, I'd prefer to see the name unchanged. If other @nodejs/collaborators disagree, at the very least I'd rather see a more succinct name like connectOptions or createOptions or similar.

I think a shorter name is better.

I see what you mean @mscdex . I think it's ok to go back to optionsPath then.

mcollina · 2016-08-16T15:04:39Z

Some nits (same as @mscdex), but LGTM for me.

Trott · 2016-08-16T20:08:57Z

Labeling in progress because it needs a test.

mscdex · 2016-08-16T20:14:05Z

It also needs a documentation update

reneweb · 2016-08-21T19:50:26Z

I've changed everything as discussed. I also noticed that we wouldn't emit a timeout event. To make it consistent with setTimeout - which does emit a timeout event - and to make it easier to test, I added that functionality. I've also added a test and updated the docs.

Minor nit, but to be consistent we could just reference self.timeout here instead.

Why not simply:

if (req.timeout) socket.once('timeout', () => req.emit('timeout'));

jasnell · 2016-08-24T22:29:53Z

Few additional nits. Almost there!

reneweb · 2016-08-28T01:16:53Z

I've fixed all the mentioned issues except for the req error handling one, which I commentent on. I've also applied the fixes to test-http-client-timeout-event, which I based my test off of, so it that is consistent.

jasnell · 2016-08-29T21:06:25Z

LGTM if CI is green.

santigimeno · 2016-08-30T08:50:33Z

Shouldn't the timeout option be documented in the net module too?

reneweb · 2016-08-31T00:02:45Z

True, I've added it now to the net documentation

CI: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-pull-request/4259/

imyller · 2016-09-24T19:21:21Z

Removing in-progress label, because test has been implemented.

reneweb · 2016-09-24T20:15:50Z

From the implementation point of view it should be fine. The only thing is that I got no feedback on, yet, are the doc changes, specifically for the net docs. Unless there are any objection there, it should be good to go.

LGTM

imyller · 2016-09-24T21:13:31Z

I'm counting three LGTMs and no clear objections for landing this. CI tests have passed.

I've assigned this to myself for landing prep, but I'd like to hold until monday to give everyone time to comment.

imyller · 2016-09-26T10:34:26Z

I'll start landing this:

Three LGTMs
No objections
All requested changes have been made
CI tests passed (only known CI failures)

Can the people who authored/reviewed this comment on #12005? It's unclear if the code actually does what the documentation suggests it does.

@bnoordhuis to the best of my knowledge, it does what is supposed to be doing. The doc is definitely not clear in what is happening.
