bi-appsrvr v0.2.6

BI Web Application Server

What?

This is the basic web application server used for web projects at Bisnode Informatics. It is basically a "sugar module", that enables developers to get a typical system with only a few keystrokes, and that can be easily used locally for development or deployed to QA or production environments.

Contents

The bi-appsrvr includes:

• an HTTP server
• an HTTPS server
• a Websocket server
• a simple routing engine
• application modules that can be hooked into routes

All of these features can be enabled independently from each other and are easily configurable.

The HTTP/HTTPS servers are based on the excellent connect framework and come with:

• cookie support
• session support
• a query and request body parser
• CSRF (cross-site request forgery) protection
• an authentication module

Websockets are implemented using socket.io, servers listen to their HTTP/S server ports.
