OptionalautoOptionalconnectionHow long a connection attempt checked before ending the socket and attempting again. If this is set to zero, the client will stay connected. Min. is 0 (Stay Connected), and Max. is 60000 (60 seconds.) Use with caution.
OptionalencodingEncoding of the messages we expect from the HL7 message.
OptionalhostHost - You can do a FQDN or the IPv(4|6) address.
Optionalipv4IPv4 - If this is set to true, only IPv4 address will be used and also validated upon installation from the hostname property.
Optionalipv6IPv6 - If this is set to true, only IPv6 address will be used and also validated upon installation from the hostname property.
OptionalmaxMax attempts to send the message before an error is thrown if we are in the process of re-attempting to connect to the server. Has to be greater than 1. You cannot exceed 50.
OptionalmaxIf we are trying to establish an initial connection to the server, let's end it after this many attempts. The time between re-connecting is determined by connectionTimeout. You cannot exceed 50.
OptionalmaxMax Connections this connection makes. Has to be greater than 1.
OptionalmaxThe number of times a connection timeout occurs until it stops attempting and just stops.
The port we should connect to on the server.
OptionalretryMax delay, in milliseconds, for exponential-backoff when reconnecting
OptionalretryStep size, in milliseconds, for exponential-backoff when reconnecting
OptionalsocketAdditional options when creating the TCP socket with net.connect().
OptionaltlsEnable TLS, or set TLS specific options like overriding the CA for self-signed certificates.
OptionalwaitWait for ACK before sending a new message. If this is set to false, you can send as many messages as you want but since you are not expecting any ACK from a previous message sent before sending another one. This does not stop the "total acknowledgement" counter on the client object to stop increasing.
If set to false, you have to tell the system to start trying to connect by sending 'start' method.
