var server = http.createServer(function(request, response) {
var newPostFormRegex = new RegExp('^/home/?$'),
stream,
pathname = url.parse(request.url).pathname;
if(newPostFormRegex.test(pathname)) {
renderNewPostForm(request, response);
}
else if (pathname === '/style.css') {
// Open a file stream to the file
stream = fs.createReadStream('style.css');
response.writeHead(200, {
'Content-type': 'text/css; charset=utf-8'
});
// On the stream end, end the response.
stream.on('end', function () {
response.end();
});
// Pipe the file stream to the response.
stream.pipe(response);
}
else {
render404(request, response);
}
});
I'll leave the rest of the logic up to you.
