500

Easily generate 500 HTTP responses. I found my self writing this logic over and over again, so it's extracted out in to a module.

Installation

npm install --save 500

Usage

'use strict';
 
var fivehundered = require('500')
  , http = require('http');
 
var server = http.createServer(function (req, res) {
  res.statusCode = 200;
 
  if (Math.random()) return fivehundered('Server failed because of reasons');
  else if (Math.random()) return fivehundered(new Error('Random error'));
 
  res.end('hello world');
}).listen(8080);
