Automated inclusion of services

index.js

/** 
 * Automated inclusion of services with Fluxible
 * 
 * The services are used on the server side as a resource. They fetch
 * an endpoint and return the data. Right now for each resource, you
 * need to manually include the file. 
 * 
 * The code sample needs to be placed in the /services/ directory of
 * your application - and be named index.js. To register all your
 * services, all you have to do:
 * 
 * var services = require('./services');
 * services.activate(app, server);
 * 
 * @see github.com/yahoo/fluxible-app/
