/*
 * Q: What is this? 
 * A: A sample file that uses mustache to render a single html tmeplate (including partials) on the serverside but keeps those partials intact so that they can be used by the client-side as well (ie. browser)
 *
 * Q: How is this useful?
 * A: To you, I have little idea. I'm doing this because I want to be able to fully render a page on the server and then refresh parts of it on the client, while reusing the widget presentation code. As the widget code is in the file, I just have to bring in mustache.js, fetch new data, and have it render the parts I need to update. And I'd like to keep it all in a single file also.
 *
 * Q: Isn't that template code broken?
 * A: Yes. I'll come back to it as I plan to patch Mu to support xpath partials natively.

1. Introduction to the replicator database

A database where you PUT/POST documents to trigger replications and you DELETE to cancel ongoing replications. These documents have exactly the same content as the JSON objects we used to POST to /_replicate/ (fields "source", "target", "create_target", "continuous", "doc_ids", "filter", "query_params".

Replication documents can have a user defined "_id". Design documents (and _local documents) added to the replicator database are ignored.

The default name of this database is _replicator. The name can be changed in the .ini configuration, section [replicator], parameter db.

npmcount output for groups of node.js thought leaders

• Nodejitsu
• Browserling
• LearnBoost
• Node.js Core team

This list has been computed using a silly tool I developed on a lark called npmcount:

• Search npm for packages belonging to a set of users.

var request = require('request');
var BufferedStream = require('morestreams').BufferedStream;

function requestHandler(req, res) {
  // immediately pipe the incoming request into a paused bufferedstream.
  // if you try to pipe after a nextTick it won't work because data starts
  // arriving immediately
  var bufferedStream = new BufferedStream
  bufferedStream.pause()
  req.pipe(bufferedStream)
