How to use nockBack?

What am I missing here?

[~/tmp]$ cat test.js
const Wreck = require('wreck');
const nock = require('nock');
const nockBack = nock.back;

nock.enableNetConnect();
nock.enableNetConnect(/canihaz/);
nockBack.fixtures = './tmp';
nockBack.setMode('record');

Wreck.get('https://canihazip.com/s', (err, res, body) => {
  var p = require('purdy');
  p(err);
  p(res);
  p(body);
});

[~/tmp]$ node test.js
NetConnectNotAllowedError {
    name: 'NetConnectNotAllowedError',
    code: 'ENETUNREACH',
    message: 'Client request error: Nock: Not allow net connect for "canihazip.com:443/s"',
    trace: [
        [0] {
            method: 'GET',
            url: 'https://canihazip.com/s'
        }
    ],
    isBoom: true,
    isServer: true,
    data: null,
    output: {
        statusCode: 502,
        payload: {
            message: 'Client request error: Nock: Not allow net connect for "canihazip.com:443/s"',
            statusCode: 502,
            error: 'Bad Gateway'
        },
        headers: {}
    },
    reformat: [Function]
}

Move nock.enableNetConnect(); below the nockBack fixtures and setMode lines. Then it should work. There’s also no need for multiple enableNetConnect - the first is permissive of all netConnects, and the second just limits it, so just go with one or the other.

Let me know if this works for you!

I never had a chance to get back to this but in my example here, I don’t see anything actually being recorded in ./tmp. Am I missing something else too?
