basic Barista example

server.js

var Router  = require('barista').Router // <-- require the router
  , http    = require('http')
  , util    = require('util')


var router = new Router // <-- create the router

// define some routes
router.get('/').to('app.index')
router.resource('products')
router.resource('users')

// create the HTTP server
var server = http.createServer()

// attach the request handler
server.on('request',function(req,res){

  // when the request is done coming in, let's dispatch it
  req.addListener('end', function (){

    // does the router have a matching route?
    var params = router.first(req.url, req.method) // <-- resolve the url & method to a params object

    if (params) { // yes, dispatch
      console.log('Routed to ' + params.controller + ' controller, ' + params.action + ' action')
      res.end('All params: ' + JSON.stringify( params ) )
    } else { // nope, 404
      console.log('no routes match a request for '+req.url)
      res.end('four-oh-four!')
    }

  }) // req 'end' event

}) // server 'request' event

// bind the server to port 8888
server.listen(8888)

fire that up & try hitting some URLs:

http://localhost:8888
http://localhost:8888/products
http://localhost:8888/products/5
http://localhost:8888/users/adam
http://localhost:8888/wtfbbq
