HTTP verbs that Node.js core's HTTP parser supports.
This module provides an export that is just like http.METHODS from Node.js core, with the following differences:
- All method names are lower-cased.
- Contains a fallback list of methods for Node.js versions that do not have a
http.METHODSexport (0.10 and lower). - Provides the fallback list when using tools like
browserifywithout pulling in thehttpshim module.
This is a Node.js module available through the npm registry. Installation is done using the npm install command:
$ npm install methodsvar methods = require('methods')This is an array of lower-cased method names that Node.js supports. If Node.js provides the http.METHODS export, then this is the same array lower-cased, otherwise it is a snapshot of the verbs from Node.js 0.10.
