@vimlet/server-static v1.2.0
vimlet-static
Installation:
$ npm install @vimlet/server-static --saveUsage:
var path = require("path");
var express = require("express");
var static = require("@vimlet/server-static");
var app = express();
app.use(static(path.join(__dirname, "public")));
const server = app.listen(3000, function(){
console.log("server is running at %s", server.address().port);
});Advance Usage:
You can pass an option argument to enable advance capabilities such as hooks, data parsing and file hashing.
var options = {
// debug: true,
parse: true,
hash: true,
// cache: true,
// cacheParsed: true,
data: {
"text": "I'm injected data, so cool!",
"date": function() {
return new Date();
}
},
afterParse: function (filePath, file) {
return file.toString() + "\n<!-- I was dynamically added! -->";
},
beforeSend: function (req, res, next) {
// res.send("Hijacked!");
next();
};
}
app.use(static(path.join(__dirname, "public")), options); Parsing: (Only if enabled)
You can use special tags (by default "@{" and "}") to inject data before the file is served. If you include hash special tag (by default ".hash." inside the parsing tags it will be treated as a url and .hash. will be replaced by the hash of that file.

<!-- I was dynamically added! -->Hash: (Only if enabled)
Note that when parsing hashed files, the actual file will not exist. To fix this when hash option is set to true, the request will be re-routed the real file by omitting the hash part.
Options:
debug
Description: If true, it will throw on error.
Default: false
parse
Description: If true, it will parse files allowing the interpolation of data. It's useful for things like file hashing.
Default: false
parseExtensions
Description: Array or "any" to allow choosing which files will be parsed.
Default: "html", "css", "js"
tags
Description: Array to allow custom tags for parsing.
Default: "@{", "}", ".hash."
data
Description: Object used when parsing for interpolation. A function can be provided as a value with a return statement to allow dynamic data.
Default: {}
cache
Description: If true, it will cache readFile to reduce I/O operations on disk. It's recommend for production environments.
Default: false
cacheParsed
Description: If true, it will cache parsed output to reduce CPU usage. Note this will affect things like dynamic data which will only run once.
hash
Description: If true, it will remove the hash part from GET requests with the following format. /url.hash.extension
Default: false
hashLength
Description: Will set the length of the hash when parsing hash interpolations.
Default: 7
hashExtensions
Description: Array or "any" to allow choosing which files will filter hash.
default: "any"
beforeParse
Description: Hook function before parsing is done.
function (filePath, file) { return file.toString(); }
afterParse
Description: Hook function after parsing is done.
function (filePath, payload) { return payload; }
beforeSend
Description: Hook function before payload is sent.
function (req, res, next) { next(); };
afterSend
Description: Hook function after payload is sent.
function (req, res, next) { next(); };
