Example

var StaticServer = require('static-server-advance');
var server = new StaticServer({
  rootPath: '.',            // required, the root of the server file tree
  name: 'my-http-server',   // optional, will set "X-Powered-by" HTTP header
  port: 1337,               // optional, defaults to a random port
  host: '10.0.0.100',       // optional, defaults to any interface
  followSymlink: true,      // optional, defaults to a 404 error
  index: 'foo.html',        // optional, defaults to 'index.html'
  error404page: '404.html'  // optional, defaults to undefined
});

server.start(function () {
  console.log('Server listening to', server.port);
});

server.on('request', function (req, res) {
  // req.path is the URL resource (file name) from server.rootPath
  // req.elapsedTime returns a string of the request's elapsed time
});

server.on('symbolicLink', function (link, file) {
  // link is the source of the reference
  // file is the link reference
  console.log('File', link, 'is a link to', file);
});

server.on('response', function (req, res, err, stat, file) {
  // res.status is the response status sent to the client
  // res.headers are the headers sent
  // err is any error message thrown
  // file the file being served (may be null)
  // stat the stat of the file being served (is null if file is null)

  // NOTE: the response has already been sent at this point
});

// mock a request, do what you want.
server.mock('/get', function(req ,res){
  // 自定义请求地址
  // 自定义操作
  res.end();
})
