Wraps a [myth][myth] instance into an HTTP request handler, performing the
minimal amount of rebundling required and pausing requests mid-build to avoid
getting old versions of your script on reload.

## Installation
```bash
$ npm install myth-request
```

## Usage
```js
const mr     = require('myth-request')
const rework = require('rework')
const http   = require('http')
const myth   = require('myth')
const fs     = require('fs')

const css     = fs.readFileSync('index.css', 'utf8')
const handler = mr(rework(css).use(myth()))
const server  = http.createServer()

server.on('request', function(req, res) {
  handler(req, res, function(err, body) {
    if (err) console.log(err)
    res.end(body)
  })
})

server.listen(process.env.PORT || 1337)
```

## Why?
Setting up boilerplate for myth as an http handler can be a bit annoying. This
module provides a good entry point for both development and production servers
running myth. No `gulp`, `grunt` or `make` needed.
