Bug? When trying to send from nodejs client

[fsvieira]

Hi,

I am new to gun.js I would like to use gun.js outside the browser (nodejs write), and get data from browser (read), reading data from browser works great, but I have a problem writing from node client, I feel that there is a time to setup node client before making a put.

My simple test case is like this:

node : v14.18.1,

Server

  const GUN = require('gun');
  
  const server = require('http').createServer().listen(3030);
  const gun = GUN({web: server});
  
  const t = gun.get('test');
  t.on(data => {
      console.log("Data", data);
  });

Working Client

when I wait a few seconds before making the put and the update is printed on server,

  const GUN = require('./gun');
  
  const gun = GUN('http://localhost:3030/gun');
  const t = gun.get('test');
  
  t.on(data => { en
      console.log(data);
  });
  
  setTimeout(() => 
      t.put({id: 1})
  , 2000);

Not Working Client

I don't wait and make the put, nothing is printed on the server, I also know that is not a problem with .on listener because:

1. If I restart server, the new records are not printed,
2. I have made html version to get server updates, and nothing is received, so server just lost the put.

  const GUN = require('./gun');
  
  const gun = GUN('http://localhost:3030/gun');
  const t = gun.get('test');
  
  t.on(data => {
      console.log(data);
  });
  
  t.put({id: 1})

I am not sure if it is a bug because I am new to gun, but I think I have saw some issues that seems similar to this.

I tried to debug it, and I notice that debug this issue makes the print show up on the server, could be the socket connection that needs time to get ready ?

Thanks.

Hi,

@i001962 thanks for your response, I did raise the question on chat.gun.eco , @amark told me to open the issue.

We also told me to try axe=false flag, but it didn't work, not sure If I did it correctly.

const gun = GUN({peers: ['http://localhost:3030/gun'], axe: false});
