Cachelicious

Who said caching and serving cached files should be a chore?

With Cachelicious it's easier than baking a pie, and almost as delicious as eating it. Mmmmm, pie.... drool

Installation

npm install cachelicious

FS Cache Usage

var CacheliciousFs = require('cachelicious').fs;
var fsCache = new CacheliciousFs(20971520); //20MB of cache
 
fsCache.createReadStream(filepath, options).pipe(destination1);
fsCache.createReadStream(filepath, {start: 2, end: 100}).pipe(destination2);
//both will stream from the same cache :)
 

Standalone HTTP Server Usage

var CacheliciousHttp = require('cachelicious').http;
 
//create an HTTP cache server with 20MB to serve files from the assets directory
(new CacheliciousHttp(20971520, __dirname + '/assets')).listen(9876);

Connect Middleware Usage

var connect = require('connect'),
    cacheliciousConnect = require('cachelicious').connect,
    http = require('http');
 
var app = connect()
    .use(cacheliciousConnect(__dirname + '/assets',  {maxCacheSize: 20971520}))
    .listen(3210);

Some test assets are included in the test/assets directory.

You can also try streaming video (and you should :D), like the Big Buck Bunny - http://www.bigbuckbunny.org/index.php/download/

Ranged HTTP requests are fully supported :)

Fast

APIB results serving the 641KB file in the test assets, running on a 2011 MacBook Air i7 1.8GHz (initial status - cold cache):
