unable to handle ssh network errors

[GalGof]

example:

// process.on('uncaughtException', function (err) {
//   console.error("uncaughtException:", err.stack);
// });

const Docker = require('dockerode');


try {
  let docker = new Docker({
    host: "127.0.0.1",
    protocol: "ssh",
    username: "root",
    sshOptions: {
      host: "127.0.0.1",
      port: 4556,
    }
  });
  console.log('created')
  docker.ping()
    .then(()=>{console.log("ping ok")})
    .catch(()=>{console.error("ping failed")});
} catch (error) {
  console.error("catch", error);  
}

setInterval(()=>console.log(+new Date()), 60000)

expected: "ping failed" in console

actual: node process crushed

node .\test.cjs created ****\node_modules\docker-modem\lib\ssh.js:40 throw err; ^

Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:22 at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1605:16) { errno: -4078, code: 'ECONNREFUSED', syscall: 'connect', address: '127.0.0.1', port: 22, level: 'client-socket' }

is there no way to handle network connection errors to docker engine? simple example above - without node's uncaughtException handler - process crashes. but node's handler doesnt help as there is no way to tell where error occured. request to dockerode simly hangs without beeing rejected.

"node_modules/dockerode": {
  "version": "4.0.2",
"node_modules/docker-modem": {
  "version": "5.0.3",

Hi! I also encountered this error, the (temporary) solution is to use a custom agent in the modem, waiting for this PR (https://github.com/apocas/docker-modem/pull/163/files) to be merged

in simple case seems like working with it, but i wonder what's wrong with it if it's not merged for a year...

I've created apocas/docker-modem#179 that fixes this issue and replaces the PR above with one that is built on the master branch and handles all the current error paths.

This should be fixed in the latest version which merged my change to docker-modem
