REST

Module to encapsulate the common configuration of a base WS based in REST (HTTPS)

Example Code to use this module:

const SERVER = require('./config.server.js');
const AUTH = require('./config.auth.js');
const API = require('./api.js');

const rest = require('@acastellon/rest')(SERVER, AUTH, API);
rest.run(); 

you can pass a function to be executed after the initialization of the server

rest.run(callback())

rest.run(() => { .. })

    */
