Node.js https module used to make a remote call to a remote server using https and BASIC authentication:
var options = {
host: 'test.example.com',
port: 443,
path: '/api/service/'+servicename,
// authentication headers
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Basic ' + new Buffer(username + ':' + passw).toString('base64')
}
};
//this is the call
request = https.get(options, function(res){
var body = "";
res.on('data', function(data) {
body += data;
});
res.on('end', function() {
//here we have the full response, html or json object
console.log(body);
})
res.on('error', function(e) {
onsole.log("Got error: " + e.message);
});
});
}
var options = {
host: 'test.example.com',
port: 443,
path: '/api/service/'+servicename,
// authentication headers
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Basic ' + new Buffer(username + ':' + passw).toString('base64')
}
};
//this is the call
request = https.get(options, function(res){
var body = "";
res.on('data', function(data) {
body += data;
});
res.on('end', function() {
//here we have the full response, html or json object
console.log(body);

res.on('error', function(e) {
onsole.log("Got error: " + e.message);
});
});
