HTTP status utility for node.
var status = require('statuses')
If Integer or String is a valid HTTP code or status message, then the appropriate code will be returned. Otherwise, an error will be thrown.
status(403) // => 403 status('403') // => 403 status('forbidden') // => 403 status('Forbidden') // => 403 status(306) // throws, as it's not supported by node.js
Returns an array of all the status codes as Integers.
Map of code to status message. undefined for invalid codes.
status[404] // => 'Not Found'
Map of status message to code. msg can either be title-cased or lower-cased. undefined for invalid status messages.
status['not found'] // => 404 status['Not Found'] // => 404
Returns true if a status code is a valid redirect status.
status.redirect[200] // => undefined status.redirect[301] // => true
Returns true if a status code expects an empty body.
status.empty[200] // => undefined status.empty[204] // => true status.empty[304] // => true
Returns true if you should retry the rest.
status.retry[501] // => undefined status.retry[503] // => true
The status codes are primarily sourced from http://www.iana.org/assignments/http-status-codes/http-status-codes-1.csv. Additionally, custom codes are added from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes. These are added manually in the lib/*.json files. If you would like to add a status code, add it to the appropriate JSON file.
To rebuild codes.json, run the following:
