Continuation of #21. :) |

bump |

Thanks for the bump @drbh. I'll be taking a closer look at this tomorrow. |

@drbh Would you mind either writing a positive test case or some unit test (which we'll need to merge anyway)? Another question I have is if we could include the orbit-db-http-server package here instead of copying the files over. Maybe there is something we can do on our end to get that merged and usable for you. I think adding an HTTP server is an extremely useful addition and besides just wanting to do it right I think we want to generalize this to be useful across all the orbit packages |

Happy to move the orbit-db-http-server repo if you want to continue it. Agreed with @aphelionz that making it generic and usable in other projects too would be the best way forward. |

Minor grammar suggestion :)

A more concise way to do it

| const shouldStream = Boolean(req.query.live) |

Standard constants can be written in all caps like below
const DEFAULT_PORT = 37373
const DEFAULT_HOST = "localhost"

Will this block of code ever execute? The err is set to false as always.
Copied files
server.jsadd.jscreate.jsget.jsfrom 3c691c032a047e99237af24af6956b9068c314e6 branch of orbit-db-http-server at https://github.com/haadcode/orbit-db-http-server.gitAdded a new file in commands that run the daemon. This currently runs in the foreground and can be canceled with CTL + C, also hard coded the port and host to remove unneeded files.
-added the files that the original PR was missing.
