+node-static
+===========
+
+> a simple, *rfc 2616 compliant* file streaming module for [node](http://nodejs.org)
+
+node-static has an in-memory file cache, making it highly efficient.
+node-static understands and supports *conditional GET* and *HEAD* requests.
+node-static was inspired by some of the other static-file serving modules out there,
+such as node-paperboy and antinode.
+
+Synopsis
+--------
+
+    var static = require('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 () {
+            //
+            // Serve files!
+            //
+            file.serve(request, response);
+        }).resume();
+    }).listen(8080);
+
+API
+---
+
+### Creating a node-static Server #
+
+Creating a file server instance is as simple as:
+
+    new static.Server();
+
+This will serve files in the current directory. If you want to serve files in a specific
+directory, pass it as the first argument:
+
+    new static.Server('./public');
+
+You can also specify how long the client is supposed to cache the files node-static serves:
+
+    new static.Server('./public', { cache: 3600 });
+
+This will set the `Cache-Control` header, telling clients to cache the file for an hour.
+This is the default setting.
+
+### Serving files under a directory #
+
+To serve files under a directory, simply call the `serve` method on a `Server` instance, passing it
+the HTTP request and response object:
+ 
+    var static = require('node-static');
+
+    var fileServer = new static.Server('./public');
+
+    require('http').createServer(function (request, response) {
+        request.addListener('end', function () {
+            fileServer.serve(request, response);
+        }).resume();
+    }).listen(8080);
+
+### Serving specific files #
+
+If you want to serve a specific file, like an error page for example, use the `serveFile` method:
+
+    fileServer.serveFile('/error.html', 500, {}, request, response);
+
+This will serve the `error.html` file, from under the file root directory, with a `500` status code.
+For example, you could serve an error page, when the initial request wasn't found:
+
+    require('http').createServer(function (request, response) {
+        request.addListener('end', function () {
+            fileServer.serve(request, response, function (e, res) {
+                if (e && (e.status === 404)) { // If the file wasn't found
+                    fileServer.serveFile('/not-found.html', 404, {}, request, response);
+                }
+            });
+        }).resume();
+    }).listen(8080);
+
+More on intercepting errors bellow.
+
+### Intercepting errors & Listening #
+
+An optional callback can be passed as last argument, it will be called every time a file
+has been served successfully, or if there was an error serving the file:
+
+    var static = require('node-static');
+    
+    var fileServer = new static.Server('./public');
+
+    require('http').createServer(function (request, response) {
+        request.addListener('end', function () {
+            fileServer.serve(request, response, function (err, result) {
+                if (err) { // There was an error serving the file
+                    sys.error("Error serving " + request.url + " - " + err.message);
+
+                    // Respond to the client
+                    response.writeHead(err.status, err.headers);
+                    response.end();
+                }
+            });
+        }).resume();
+    }).listen(8080);
+
+Note that if you pass a callback, and there is an error serving the file, node-static
+*will not* respond to the client. This gives you the opportunity to re-route the request,
+or handle it differently.
+
+For example, you may want to interpret a request as a static request, but if the file isn't found,
+send it to an application.
+
+If you only want to *listen* for errors, you can use *event listeners*:
+
+    fileServer.serve(request, response).addListener('error', function (err) {
+        sys.error("Error serving " + request.url + " - " + err.message);
+    });
+
+With this method, you don't have to explicitly send the response back, in case of an error.
+
+### Options when creating an instance of `Server` #
+
+#### `cache` #
+
+Sets the `Cache-Control` header.
+
+example: `{ cache: 7200 }`
+
+Passing a number will set the cache duration to that number of seconds.
+Passing `false` will disable the `Cache-Control` header.
+
+> Defaults to `3600`
+
+
+#### `serverInfo` #
+
+Sets the `Server` header.
+
+example: `{ serverInfo: "myserver" }`
+
+> Defaults to `node-static/{version}`
+
+#### `headers` #
+
+Sets response headers.
+
+example: `{ 'X-Hello': 'World!' }`
+
+> defaults to `{}`
+
+#### `gzip` #
+
+Enable support for sending compressed responses.  This will enable a check for a
+file with the same name plus '.gz' in the same folder.  If the compressed file is
+found and the client has indicated support for gzip file transfer, the contents
+of the .gz file will be sent in place of the uncompressed file along with a
+Content-Encoding: gzip header to inform the client the data has been compressed.
+
+example: `{ gzip: true }`
+example: `{ gzip: /^\/text/ }`
+
+Passing `true` will enable this check for all files.
+Passing a RegExp instance will only enable this check if the content-type of the
+respond would match that RegExp using its test() method.
+
+> Defaults to `false`
+
+
+Command Line Interface
+----------------------
+
+`node-static` also provides a CLI.
+
