deliver

Serve local and remote static files.

Install

npm install deliver --save

Usage

Local file

var deliver = require('deliver');
var http = require('http');

http.createServer(function (req, res) {
  // Conditionally set the request url
  req.url = '/some';
  
  deliver(req, res, {
    root: process.cwd() // OPTIONAL
  }).pipe(res);
  
}).listen(3000);

Remote file (proxy)

var deliver = require('deliver');
var http = require('http');

http.createServer(function (req, res) {
  // Conditionally set the request url
  req.url = '/somefile.html';
  
  deliver(req, res, {
    root: 'http://www.somewhere.com'
  }).pipe(res);
  
}).listen(3000);

deliver(req, res,[, options])

Returns a stream almost identical to the send module. That means you can listen to the same events (i.e. directory, error, etc).

• req - the request object
• res - the response object
• options
  • root - set the root directory that holds the static files to serve. This can be a path or a url
  • index - set a custom index file. Pass false to disable or pass a string or array of strings for a custom index file.
  • contentType - override the content type
