## README

# chrome-app

Launch a no-UI Chrome App from nodejs. Extracted
from Rod Vagg's [morkdown](https://github.com/rvagg/morkdown) project.

## install

    npm install --save chrome-app

## example

```js
http.createServer(function(request, response) {
  response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/plain"});
  response.end("Hello World\n");
}).listen(null, function(err, res) {
  chromeApp(this.address().address + ':' + this.address().port);
});
```

## api

```js
chromeApp(url, [name])
```

Given a URL, open a new Chrome window with that URL as an app. The window
will close when the process exits, and the process will exit when the window
is closed.

`name`, if given, is a string representing a directory under `~` where Chrome's
user data will be stored. In practical terms, it's your app name.
