Node.js getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND

In Node.js HTTP module’s documentation: http://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_http_request_options_callback

You can either call http.get('http://eternagame.wikia.com/wiki/EteRNA_Dictionary', callback), the URL is then parsed with url.parse(); or call http.get(options, callback), where options is

{
  host: 'eternagame.wikia.com',
  port: 8080,
  path: '/wiki/EteRNA_Dictionary'
}

Update

As stated in the comment by @EnchanterIO, the port field is also a separate option; and the protocol http:// shouldn’t be included in the host field. Other answers also recommends the use of https module if SSL is required.
