Connect is an extensible HTTP server framework for node using "plugins" known as middleware.

var connect = require('connect')
  , http = require('http');

var app = connect()
  .use(require('compression')())
  .use(require('')())
  .use(require('')())
  .use(function(req, res){
    res.end('Hello from Connect!\n');
  });

http.createServer(app).listen(3000);

Connect 3.0 is in progress in the master branch. The main changes in Connect are:

• Middleware will be moved to their own repositories in the expressjs organization
• All node patches will be removed - all middleware should work without Connect and with similar frameworks like restify
• Node 0.8 is no longer supported
• The website documentation has been removed - view the markdown readmes instead

If you would like to help maintain these middleware, please contact @jongleberry.

These middleware are officially supported by the Connect/Express team:

• body-parser - previous bodyParser, json, and urlencoded. You may also be interested in:
  • body
  • co-body
  • raw-body
• compression - previously compress
• morgan - previously logger
• express-session - previously session
• static-favicon - previously favicon
• response-time - previously response-time

These middleware previously included with Connect are no longer supported by the Connect/Express team or are replaced by an alternative module. Use one of these alternatives intead:

• cookieParser
  • cookies and keygrip
• limit
  • raw-body
• multipart
  • connect-multiparty
  • connect-busboy
• staticCache
  • st
• query
  • qs
