From the documentation: server.get(/\/docs\/public\/?.*/, restify.plugins.serveStatic({ directory: ‘./public’ })); But this will search files in the ./public/docs/public/ directory. If you want to not append request path to it, use appendRequestPath: false option. I prefer to use __dirname key here: server.get(/\/public\/?.*/, restify.plugins.serveStatic({ directory: __dirname })); The value of __dirname is equal to script file directory path, which … Read more
I like MongoJS a lot. It lets you use Mongo in a very similar way to the default command line and it’s just a wrapper over the official Mongo driver. You only open the DB once and specify which collections you’ll be using. You can even omit the collections if you run Node with –harmony-proxies. … Read more
You have to set the server up to set cross origin headers. Not sure if there is a built in use function or not, so I wrote my own. server.use( function crossOrigin(req,res,next){ res.header(“Access-Control-Allow-Origin”, “*”); res.header(“Access-Control-Allow-Headers”, “X-Requested-With”); return next(); } ); I found this from this tutorial. http://backbonetutorials.com/nodejs-restify-mongodb-mongoose/

Corrigendum: this information is now wrong, keep scrolling! there was an issue with the script causing the Restify test to be conducted on an unintended route. This caused the connection to be kept alive causing improved performance due to reduced overhead. This is 2015 and I think the situation has changed a lot since. Raygun.io … Read more
There are many questions asked here, and it seems that even though the questions are asked in the context of Node and passport.js the real questions are more about workflow than how to do this with a particular technology. Let’s use @Keith example setup, modified a bit for added security: Web server at https://example.com serves … Read more
It seems to mean your node server’s connection to your MongoDB instance was interrupted while it was trying to write to it. Take a look at the Mongo source code that generates that error Mongos.prototype.insert = function(ns, ops, options, callback) { if(typeof options == ‘function’) callback = options, options = {}; if(this.s.state == DESTROYED) return … Read more
