###mock request

During development，you may need to mock a request . use -a <addon> to help you mock a dynamic api

puer -a route.js

a sample route.js looks like:

// use addon to mock http request
module.exports = {
  // GET
  "GET /v1/posts/:id": function(req, res, next){
	// response json format
    res.send({
      title: "title changed",
      content: "tow post hahahah"
    })

  },
  // PUT POST DELETE is the same
  "PUT /v1/posts/:id": function(){

  },
  "POST /v1/posts": function(){

  },
  "DELETE /v1/posts/:id": function(){

  }
}          

It is just a config for routers, you need export an [Object] containing router config. The keys join with 【METHOD】 and 【PATH】, and the values represent the callback。This function is based on express's router, you can check its documentation for more help。

【check the usage record 】

Once route.js is changed, puer will refresh it. There is no need to restart puer.

###proxy support

you can use -t or --target to use puer with an exsiting server. For example, say you already have a server running at port 8020.

puer -t http://localhost:8020

【check the record for proxy mode】

You can use 【addon】 with【 target】 for more powerful usage。

puer -t http://localhost:8020 -a route.js

【check the usage record 】

type -i to bootstrap the weinre, the client script is injected for you in every page through puer, click the 【nav to weinre terminal 】button or find the weinre server directly at port 9001

puer -i

【check the usage record 】

###use as [connect|express]-middleware

var connect = require("connect")
var path = require("path")
var http = require("http")
var puer = require("puer")
var app = connect()
var server = http.createServer(app)

var options = {
    dir: "path/to/watch/folder", 
    ignored: /(\/|^)\..*|node_modules/  //ignored file
}

app.use(puer.connect(app, server , options))   //use as puer connect middleware
// you must use puer middleware before route and static midleware(before any middle may return 'text/html')
app.use("/", connect.static(__dirname))


server.listen(8001, function(){
    console.log("listen on 8001 port")
})

You must use puer middleware before route and static middleware(before any middle may return 'text/html')
