Unable to send a large image buffer from client

[jsheffers]

When client.write() finally sends I get the following error. [RangeError: Property storage exceeds 196607 properties]. I'm then trying to send that data via your library. Do you see any issues here? I don't have control over the server, it's expecting a binary file not chunks of a binary file, so I don't thinking chunking is even an option here.

  const startImageTransfer = (connInfo) => {
    console.log("––––––– startImageTransfer() ––––––––");
    if (connInfo && imageData) {
      // console.log("Starting image transfer with connInfo:", connInfo);

      const header = JSON.stringify({
        num: 0,
        total: 1,
        fileLength: imageData.length,
        fileName: "something",
        fileType: "jpg",
        secKey: connInfo.key,
        version: "0.0.1",
      });

      const options = {
        port: parseInt(connInfo.port),
        host: connInfo.ip,
        reuseAddress: true,
      };

      const client = TcpSocket.createConnection(options, async () => {
        console.log("––––––– TCP connected! ––––––––");

        try {
          // Send header length (4 bytes)
          const headerBytes = Buffer.from(header, "utf8");
          const headerLength = Buffer.alloc(4);
          headerLength.writeUInt32BE(headerBytes.length);

          const combinedData = Buffer.concat([
            headerLength,
            headerBytes,
            imageData,
          ]);
          client.write(combinedData);
          console.log("Sent combined data:", combinedData);
          client.end();
        } catch (error) {
          console.error("Error sending data:", error);
        }
      });

      client.on("data", (data) => {
        console.log("TCP received:", data.toString());
      });

      client.on("error", (error) => {
        console.error("TCP Error:", error);
      });

      client.on("close", () => {
        console.log("TCP Connection closed");
      });
    } else {
      console.error("Missing connInfo or imageData");
    }
  };

Any thoughts on this?

You can split into smaller chunks before sending.
