# lws-range

Lws middleware plugin adding support for [HTTP Range Requests](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Range_requests). Wraps [koa-range](https://github.com/koajs/koa-range).

## Synopsis

Install the plugin then launch a server supporting only range requests and static files.

```
$ npm install --save-dev lws-range

$ ws --stack lws-range lws-static
Listening on http://mbp.local:8000, http://127.0.0.1:8000, http://192.168.0.200:8000
```

Make some requests - note the presence of `Accept-Ranges: bytes` in the response.

```
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/package.json -I
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 649
Last-Modified: Sun, 27 Feb 2022 14:26:27 GMT
Cache-Control: max-age=0
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Date: Sun, 27 Feb 2022 14:30:21 GMT
```
