Dimer Http server

Serve dimer datastore over HTTP server

travis-image appveyor-image npm-image

This module can be used to serve Dimer datastore JSON files over HTTP server.

Installation

npm i @dimerapp/http-server

# yarn
yarn add @dimerapp/http-server

Usage

Http server needs a callback, which is used as a middleware and must attach basePath property to req object.

The basePath is the path where .json files for a website project are stored.

const httpServer = require('@dimerapp/http-server')

const { router, createServer } = httpServer({
  cors: {}, // https://github.com/expressjs/cors#readme
  NODE_ENV: 'development'
})

// This middleware is required and must set the basePath
router.use((req, res, next) => {
  req.basePath = join(__dirname, 'api')

  // optionally
  req.distPath = 'dist'
  next()
})

createServer().listen(5000)
