integration with express? about datafire HOT 4 CLOSED

This is a great idea. It would only take a bit of refactoring in ./src/lib/project-server.js to return an express router rather than starting a server. I'm thinking something like:

var datafire = require('datafire');
var project = datafire.Project.fromDirectory(__dirname);
var app = require('express')();

app.use('/api', project.router())
app.listen(3000);

I'm happy to take a crack at this tomorrow, but if you're eager feel free to submit a PR.

hm yes i like that idea.
That would make it very modular & extendable.
Unfortunately I'll be busy this week to deliver a nodejs project to a client.
I just looked at the code, and i wasn't really sure what to do with the close()-function.
Keep in touch!
