Serves a static file from a server. Requires the node-static module. Used in my Selfie App tutorial.

run.js

var static = require('node-static');
 
// https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-static
// Create a node-static server instance to serve the './public' folder 
// 
var file = new static.Server('./public');
 
require('http').createServer(function (request, response) {
    request.addListener('end', function () {
        file.serve(request, response);
    }).resume();
}).listen(8080);
