   Thus far, unless I missed it, I do not believe so. It's on my todo list to circle back on this but haven't had the opportunity (to be clear, I want to incorporate this into httpparser so that it'll be supported by both node and io.js)

   Requires a version of nodejs/http-parser#158 according to that issue. Not sure if a new patch ever landed.

   Don't believe it did. I've since removed that particular branch because I fell out of date rather quickly. An updated fix would be quite similar tho. It's not too difficult to do just haven't had the opportunity to actually work on it.

   Duplicated my SO answer here:

   PROPFIND or any other verb is supported just fine for outbound requests in node and iojs. There is either something else wrong with your request (wrong/bad headers or payload for example) or configuration on the server.

   Example of PROPFIND working:

   // client.js
   require('http').request({
     host: '127.0.0.1',
     port: 8000,
     method: 'PROPFIND'
   }, function(res) {
     res.resume();
   }).end();
   
   // server.js
   require('http').createServer(function(req,res) {
     // echoes "PROPFIND" to stdout
     console.log(req.method);
   
     res.writeHead(200, { 'Connection': 'close' });
     res.end();
   }).listen(8000);

   By the way, PROPFIND (and the other custom WebDAV methods) is supported by the HTTP parser at least since node v0.8. Outbound requests are not limited to a particular set of HTTP verbs.

    Not yet. Once the new pure js http impl lands they should be, but for now,
    the http-parser based impl supports only a fixed set of http verbs.

    Closing. This is unlikely to happen at all with the http/1 implementation. The http/2 implementation will support any http verbs
