client listener events documentations

[iamtennislover]

Hi,
I would like to know what are the events that I can listen on for client? Is there any documentation for this?

 var client = ldap.createClient({
            url: testurl
        });
client.on('error', function(err) {console.log(err)})

I too would be interested to get some documentation about client events, there seems to be quite a lot:

• error
• destroy
• idle
• connectError
• setup
• resultError
• setupError
• socketTimeout
• end
• connect
• close
• timeout

while many are easy to guess, it would be great to get some documentation on the expected flows for these events :)

Definitely some documentation is needed. I am currently struggling with a close for example. I have no idea how to test and raise this event but without handling the event it is crashing my app.

at Client._onClose (/data/app/node_modules/ldapjs/lib/client/client.js:1272:19)
at Object.onceWrapper (events.js:293:19)
at emitOne (events.js:96:13)
at Socket.emit (events.js:191:7)
at TCP._handle.close [as _onclose] (net.js:511:12)

Wow this would have been really nice to have in the documentation.

It might also be worth it to consolidate some of these events to make them more intuitive
