Connect

Connect is an extensible HTTP server framework for node, providing high performance "plugins" known as middleware.

Connect is bundled with over 20 commonly used middleware, including a logger, session support, cookie parser, and more. Be sure to view the 2.x documentation.

var connect = require('connect')
  , http = require('http');

var app = connect()
  .use(connect.favicon('public/favicon.ico'))
  .use(connect.logger('dev'))
  .use(connect.static('public'))
  .use(connect.directory('public'))
  .use(connect.cookieParser())
  .use(connect.session({ secret: 'my secret here' }))
  .use(function(req, res){
    res.end('Hello from Connect!\n');
  });

http.createServer(app).listen(3000);
