Add a control-port to your nodejs apps.
When developing a nodejs application or server, it's sometimes useful to have an easy to use control-port.
node-controlport helps you to control the application/service behavior in a detached manner from your main application logic.
You require node-controlport and then assign endpoints to take care of incoming requests,
the Usage example below shows how to handle a basic status check.
$ npm install node-controlportvar cp = require('node-controlport');
var cp_endpoints = [];
cp_endpoints.push({
endpoint: 'status',
exec: function (callback) {
callback({status: 'Success'});
}
});
cp.start(42101, cp_endpoints);This will add an endpoint named status on http://localhost:42101.
