      Hello everyone,

      I’m pretty new to NodeJS, but I’m working on a module for the Home automation JEEDOM.
      I’m stuck at being able to do a simple GET and having the context during async GET response in order to know from where my request came from

      var req = https.get("https://JEEDOMURL/core/api/jeeApi.php?apikey=...&type=cmd&id=127");
      req.idx = "127";
      req.on("response", function(res){
      	res.on('data', (d) => {		
      	console.log("DEBUG : " + req.idx +" / "+ typeof (d));
      	console.log("DEBUG : " + req.idx +" / "+ d);
      	})
      });
      
      var req = https.get("https://JEEDOMURL/core/api/jeeApi.php?apikey=...&type=cmd&id=695");
      req.idx = "695";
      req.on("response", function(res){
      	res.on('data', (d) => {		
      	console.log("DEBUG : " + req.idx +" / "+ typeof (d));
      	console.log("DEBUG : " + req.idx +" / "+ d);
      	})
      });
      

      With no surprise I’m getting
      DEBUG : 695 / object
      DEBUG : 695 / 5515
      DEBUG : 695 / object
      DEBUG : 695 / 19.8

      instead of getting
      DEBUG : 695 / object
      DEBUG : 127 / 5515
      DEBUG : 695 / object
      DEBUG : 695 / 19.8

      I know that is expected by JS async guru, but How can I explicitly pass a variable and getting my http get DATA synchronize.

      I’ve read a lot of module code, and unfortunately for me JEEDOM is not giving me any context information in the GET answer
      https://JEEDOMURL/core/api/jeeApi.php?apikey=...&type=cmd&id=127" is only responding 5515
      and https://JEEDOMURL/core/api/jeeApi.php?apikey=...&type=cmd&id=695" is responding 19.8

      Any help would be appreciate ?

      Thanks in advance for your time.
      I’m really stuck, and I don’t want to parse the URL to get back my ID.
