Serverunited

Serverunited is an HTTP web-server written in node.js using sockets.

Installation

npm install serverunited

var server = require('serverunited');

How to set-up:

• To start the server, use server.startServer(port, address)

  server.startServer(8080, '127.0.0.1');

• Routing mechanism

  • For adding a route, use server.addRoute(method, path, function)

    server.addRoute('get', '/', home);

    • method corresponds to the HTTP method (get or post)
    • path is the requested path by the browser
    • function is the user-defined function

  • addRoute(method, path, function) binds the function to a set of method and path

    function addRoute(method, path, func) {
        ROUTES[method][path] = func;
    }

  • ROUTES is an object used to build method-path pair

    var ROUTES = {
        get : {},
        post : {}
    }

  server.sendHTML(request, response, content);

• To send the JSON data, use server.sendJSON(request, response, JSON_content)

  server.sendJSON(request, response, content);

  • To add session

    server.addSession(request, content);

  • To get session

    server.getSession(request);
