Caronte with target as string not working (but object is, kind of - without headers)

[Rush]

var caronte = require('./index.js');
var proxy = caronte.createProxyServer({
});
var EventEmitter = require('events').EventEmitter;


require('http').createServer(function(req, res) {
  res.end("TEST");
}).listen(8089)

require('http').createServer(function(req, res) {
  proxy.web(req, res, {
    target: "http:https://127.0.0.1:8089",
/*    target: {
      protocol: 'http',
      port: 8089
    },*/
    ee: new EventEmitter()
  }
);
}).listen(8081);

Run with ab2 -v 2 -c 1 -n 20 http:https://127.0.0.1:8081/

Will yield:

> node ./test

events.js:72
        throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
              ^
Error: connect ECONNREFUSED
    at errnoException (net.js:878:11)
    at Object.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:869:19)

Now uncomment the:

/*    target: {
      protocol: 'http',
      port: 8089
    },*/

The test will work but without headers being sent, please advice.

i didn't realize you were calling proxy.web directly, my bad.. in that case you do have to provide an object (not a string) .. this is also kinda lame.. i'll come up with something

about the headers.. i'm writing the outgoing pipeline described in the README.md which will implement res.writeHeader

works for me.. as a temporary workaround you can pass { target: require('url').parse("MYURL") }
