If I need to see the incoming request headers I use: req.headers.
I need to see the list of all headers that will be in the response.
res.headers is undefined.
I know I can set response headers: res.header('', '').
How do I view the response headers..?

In node, the headers are accessed by using lowercased names, so using response. headers['content-encoding'] is correct. Your code snippet currently works for me and displays 'server encoded the data as: gzip.
While you can't ready any headers of HTML response in JS, you can read Server-Timing header, and you can pass arbitrary key-value data through it.
To see a list of HTTP request headers, you can use : console. log(JSON. stringify(req.
To set the response header on express.js responses, we can call the res.set method with the response header content.
More info: Response Header Uses A number of RESTful APIs use response headers to indicate important information after a call. For example, some third-party APIs will include current rate limit information in custom headers. In my case, I was using the handy json-serverpackage for some test data.
How to get and set headers using express in node js? In this article let us see how to send and receive headers using node js express. <requestObject>.headers returns a JavaScript object that consists of all the headers came as part of the request. Since it is a JavaScript object, the header name can be accessed like a property of the object.
Setting Cache-control header in Express You can set HTTP headers in an Express app using the responseapi: res.set('Cache-control', 'public, max-age=300') It would be very cumbersome to apply the code above for every single route. We will create a caching middleware to help automatically set the right header for the entire Express app.
In recent versions of express there is:
res.getHeaders()
-> {x-powered-by: "Express"}
Properties starting with "_" are not part of the official api. In case of changes, they will not be documented, and chances are the code will break.
