koa-statuses v1.0.2

koa-status

HTTP status utility for node.

API

var status = require('koa-statuses');

If Integer or String is a valid HTTP code or status message, then the appropriate code will be returned. Otherwise, an error will be thrown.

app.status(403) // => 403
app.status('403') // => 403
app.status('forbidden') // => 403
app.status('Forbidden') // => 403
app.status(306) // throws, as it's not supported by node.js

status.codes

Returns an array of all the status codes as Integers.

var msg = statuscode

Map of code to status message. undefined for invalid codes.

app.status[404] // => 'Not Found'

var code = statusmsg

Map of status message to code. msg can either be title-cased or lower-cased. undefined for invalid status messages.

app.status['not found'] // => 404
app.status['Not Found'] // => 404

status.redirectcode

Returns true if a status code is a valid redirect status.

app.status.redirect[200] // => undefined
app.status.redirect[301] // => true

status.emptycode

Returns true if a status code expects an empty body.

app.status.empty[200] // => undefined
app.status.empty[204] // => true
app.status.empty[304] // => true

status.retrycode

Returns true if you should retry the rest.

app.status.retry[501] // => undefined
app.status.retry[503] // => true

statuses/codes.json

var codes = require('koa-statuses/codes.json');

This is a JSON file of the status codes taken from require('http').STATUS_CODES. This is saved so that codes are consistent even in older node.js versions. For example, 308 will be added in v0.12.

Adding Status Codes

The status codes are primarily sourced from http://www.iana.org/assignments/http-status-codes/http-status-codes-1.csv. Additionally, custom codes are added from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes. These are added manually in the lib/*.json files. If you would like to add a status code, add it to the appropriate JSON file.

To rebuild codes.json, run the following:
