swayzee v1.0.0

Swayzee

Server to return static versions of your single page app.

How it works

When the server initializes it creates a phantomjs instance and opens a page with the url of the single page app. When the phantom is ready a express instance starts listening for page requests. When the phantom evaluation function detects that the title of the page has changed it returns the current html.

Conventions

• Swayzee works with the #! escaped_fragment google convention.
• Swayzee works with the watching the window.prerenderReady boolean value, it must be setted to true when the spa finish the rendering process.
• Swayzee asumes that when the title changes means that the page has finished loading.
• Swayzee looks for a this tag in the html <meta name="prerender-status-code" content="404"> to detect 404 errors.
