spandx examples

Here are some examples of spandx configurations. Many more can be found in the test suite, but these examples are more real-world than what you'll find in the test suite.

All examples have verbose: true so you can see where each request is being routed.

List of examples

• JavaScript Overlay: overlaying your local JavaScript files on top of a remote env
• Multi-host: change remote env based on current hostname (very useful for pointing at dev, qa, stage, and prod servers)

Running the examples

To launch an example, simply cd to the example that interests you and run the ./start.sh script.

cd examples/js-overlay
./start.sh

In the case of js-overlay, the start script will launch an HTTP Server that we'll call the "remote" server. Imagine this is your production server. It has an index.html and a main.js. If you view this directly, you'll see "PROD JS!". If you view it through spandx instead, you'll see the same index.html, but the development copy of main.js is run instead of the prod version.
