How to use Splunk & NodeJS to establish a connection and pull data from Splunk?

[gregory__]

Hi,

My team and I are currently developing a website which needs to pull data from Splunk and insert it into visualizations on the home page on the website. As the title suggests, we are currently using React and NodeJS and due to our absolute lack of Splunk experience we are a bit bogged down so please forgive me if this is a potentially dumb question. 

We are trying to use the Splunk JavaScript SDK in Node to establish a connection and pull data from Splunk. we have tried absolutely everything  at this point but cannot establish a connection and perform a simple service.login through the SDK. We have tried this with postman and it appears to be working just fine on that side of things.

For Example: 

We have tried using the code from Server Side Javascript but when running it, it throws the following error:

  throw err;
        ^
{
  response: { headers: {}, statusCode: 600 },
  status: 600,
  data: undefined,
  error: Error: connect ECONNREFUSED ::1:8089
      at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1195:16) {
    errno: -4078,
    code: 'ECONNREFUSED',
    syscall: 'connect',
    address: '::1',
    port: 8089
  }
}

Node.js v17.9.0

 OR this error : 

        throw err;
        ^
{
  response: { headers: {}, statusCode: 600 },
  status: 600,
  data: undefined,
  error: Error: write EPROTO 04490000:error:0A00010B:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:wrong version number:c:\ws\deps\openssl\openssl\ssl\record\ssl3_record.c:355:

      at WriteWrap.onWriteComplete [as oncomplete] (node:internal/stream_base_commons:94:16) {
    errno: -4046,
    code: 'EPROTO',
    syscall: 'write'
  }
}

Node.js v17.9.0

Can anyone please help? Any help would be greatly appreciated
