Use returned middleware as in example below. You can use it directly in your server handler, or handle it with Connect

var bespokeSyncMiddleware = require('bespoke-sync/server')({
  // Options (all optional, with defaults as below)
  log: false,
  ssePath: '/sse-slides/',
  xhrPath: '/slide/'
});

createServer(function (req, res) {
	bespokeSyncMiddleware(req, res, function () {
	  // Request not handled by Bespoke, handle below
	  // ...
	});
});

Client (browser)

var sync = require('bespoke-sync/client');

bespoke.from(selector, [
	// Options (all optional, with defaults as below)
  sync({
    log: false,
    ssePath: '/sse-slides/', // Must match ssePath in server conf
    xhrPath: '/slide/' // Must match xhrPath in server conf
  })
]);
