node.js RESTlike

Very very experimental node.js REST-ish-like server.

introduction

The goal of restlike is to provide a simple quick way to test out the abilitites of node.js. I've done this only to test out a few new things and execute benchmarks against node.js and other languages.

If you feel like fixing it, forking it, breaking it, etc. then knock yourself out.

If you are looking for something solid, look at journey and/or nodejitsu, they have a bunch of awesomesauce things.

synopsis

var restlike = require('./lib/restlike');

http.createServer(function (request, response) {
    var restlike = new restlike.Restlike(request, response);

    restlike.match('/my/:name', {
        // Handle the GET request
        get: function(data) { 
            return {"name": data.name};
        },
        
        // Handle the POST request
        post: function() {
            return ['posted'];
        }
    });

    restlike.match('/your/road',{
        // Handle the DELETE request.
        delete: function() {
            return [1,2,3,4,5];
        }
    });
}).listen(8080);
