How to solve "HPE_HEADER_OVERFLOW" with babel-node

Question

I have to call a API to get some data. There is my code.

getRestaurant = async (id) => {
    return await request({
        uri: `https://domain/v3/information/${id}`,
        json: true,
    })
}

But there is a error show below.

I have searched for some solution here and here and try to add a flag --max-http-header-size. Actually, I don't know how to compile my node.js. And the second problem is that my node app is transformed by babel.

I can not make a command like npx babel-node app.js --max-http-header-size=16384

Is any method to let me using babel-node with the --max-http-header-size flag?

Answer 1

Faced same issued and figured with this post This can be done in

package.json > scripts > start

e.g.

"scripts": {
    "start": "node index.js --max-http-header-size=80000"
}
