  // you can modify the bundle with custom transforms and other cool things
  // if you want to
  b.transform(brfs);
});
 
http.createServer(function (req, res) {
  if (req.url == '/bundle.js') {
    bundle(process.env.NODE_ENV == 'production').pipe(res);
  } else {

API

var bundle = browserifyCached(entry[, opts][, fn])

Create a new browserify-cached instance with entry being the path to the browser JavaScript entry point.

Possible options are:

• compress (Boolean): If true, compress cached bundles with uglify-js. Defaults to true.

If you specify fn you can use that to modify the bundle before it will be built.

bundle(cached).pipe( ... )

Create a readable stream of your JavaScript bundle. If cached is true, it will create and/or serve a cached version.

TODO

• invalidate cache based on mtime

Installation

With npm do:

npm install browserify-cached
