LibServer

LibServer is a minimalist library for creating HTTP servers in Node.js, offering a simplified alternative to Express.js, with no external dependencies. It is designed to be lightweight and efficient, making it easy to create servers, manage routes and middleware, and handle file uploads.

Features

• HTTP Server: Easily create servers using Node.js's native http module.
• Middleware: Support for both global and route-specific middleware.
• Dynamic Routing: Define routes for the main HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE).
• Query Params: Automatic parsing of query string parameters.
• File Uploads: Native middleware for handling file uploads.
• JSON Support: Process requests and responses in JSON format.

Installation

Install the library via npm:

npm install lib-server

Usage Example

Here is a basic example of how to use LibServer:

import Server from 'lib-server';

const app = new Server();

app.use((req, res, next) => {
  console.log(`Method: ${req.method}, Route: ${req.url}`);
  next();
});

app.get('/hello', (req, res) => {
  res.end('Hello, World!');
});

app.post('/upload', app.upload({ /* upload settings */ }), (req, res) => {
  res.end('Upload successful!');
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('Server running on port 3000');
});
