Lead Maintainer - Chris Dyer

A server composer for Express.

Tape provides configuration based composition of Express's application object. Specifically it wraps

• an application creation via app = require('express')()
• one or more router = require('express').Router() registrations
• zero or more registrations of middleware

calling each based on the configuration generated from the Tape manifest.

Interface

Tape's API is a single compose function accepting a JSON manifest file specifying the express application routes, middleware, local variables and view settings.

express version dependency

Tape currently supports express 4. Additional support will be added as express matures. Tape has not been tested on lower versions of express.
