v0.1.2-alpha

This is probably the last release of the 0.1 series as the 0.2 branch is almost ready to be merged in the trunk.

This release introduce fixes and two features: null rules and status code handling.

Changeset

• avoids a useless traversal when constructing the Accept header
• suffixes callback delegates with Callback
• status handling
• null can be used as a rule to catch all possible paths
• uses 0 as a default file descriptor for FastCGI
• uses add_main_options_entries for compatibility with GIO (>=2.40)

Status handling

The feature was initially planned for the 0.2 minor release, but it could be easily merged in master. It provides new helpers on the Router to handle thrown status codes.

app.status (404, (req, res) => {
    // handle a 404 error...
});

The null rule

Using null as a rule will match all possible request paths so that it can be conveniently used to create catch-all routes.

app.get (null, (req, res) => {
    res.write ("Hello world!".data);
});

Combined with all, it provides a simple mechanism to build middlewares.
