Execute a listener when a response is about to write headers.

## Installation

This is a [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) module available through the
[npm registry](https://www.npmjs.com/). Installation is done using the
[`npm install` command](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-npm-packages-locally):

```sh
$ npm install on-headers
```

## API

<!-- eslint-disable no-unused-vars -->

```js
var onHeaders = require('on-headers')
```

### onHeaders(res, listener)

This will add the listener `listener` to fire when headers are emitted for `res`.
The listener is passed the `response` object as it's context (`this`). Headers are
considered to be emitted only once, right before they are sent to the client.

When this is called multiple times on the same `res`, the `listener`s are fired
in the reverse order they were added.

## Examples

```js
var http = require('http')
var onHeaders = require('on-headers')

http
  .createServer(onRequest)
  .listen(3000)

function addPoweredBy () {
  // set if not set by end of request
  if (!this.getHeader('X-Powered-By')) {
    this.setHeader('X-Powered-By', 'Node.js')
  }
}

function onRequest (req, res) {
  onHeaders(res, addPoweredBy)

  res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain')
  res.end('hello!')
}
```

## Testing

```sh
$ npm test
```
