koa-latency-headers

Koa Latency Header Middleware

This middleware adds two headers to the response.

• x-request-received is set by the server with the timestamp of when the request was received
• x-response-sent is set by the server with the timestamp of when the response was sent

More information on why to add these headers.

// Set the x-request-received header
app.use(latency())
 
// Send the response body
app.use(function *(next){
 
  // Simulate processing delay
  yield (function() {
    var timeout = Math.floor((Math.random() * 25) + 25);
    return function (cb) {
      setTimeout(cb, timeout)
    }
  })()
 
  // Obligatory hello world
