Parse Buffer into an http.IncomingMessage

[Chris Ackerman]

I have a net.Server listening and on 'data' emit, depending on the contents of the buffer, I may want to emulate a 'request' event passing IncomingMessage and ServerResponse instances. Looking at the node source lib sub directory, it looks like there's no sanctioned way to create the IncomingMessage from userland. If I could, then creating a ServerResponse would be trivial since it can be constructed from the request.

Is there some way to create an IncomingMessage instance from a Buffer that I'm missing?

Not that easy, but you could do something like what
parserOnHeadersComplete does in _http_common.js together with
connectionListener in _http_server.js. If you're really into it.
