## Installation

```bash
$ npm install node-nntp
```

## Usage

Here is an example that fetches 100 articles from the _php.doc_ of the _news.php.net_ server:

```javascript
var NNTP = require('node-nntp');

var nntp = new NNTP({host: 'news.php.net', port: 119, secure: false});

nntp.connect(function (error, response) {

  nntp.group('php.doc.nl', function (error, group) {

    nntp.overviewFormat(function (error, format) {

      // If your server supports XZVER use nntp.xzver for a performance boost.
      nntp.xover(group.first + '-' + (parseInt(group.first, 10) + 100), format, function (error, messages) {
        // An array containing all messages.
        console.log(messages);
      });
    });
  });
});
```
