Connect Pause
=============

Connect/Express middleware to simulate latency for debugging

Installation
===

npm install connect-pause

Usage
===

Pause all Connect requests:

var connect = require('connect'),
pause = require('connect-pause');

Connect.createServer(
pause(1000),
function(req, res, next){
res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type':'text/plain'});
res.end('Waited 1 second');
}
).listen(8080);

Pause all Express requests:

var express = require('express'),
pause = require('connect-pause');

var app = express();
app.use(pause(1000));
app.get('/', function(req, res){
res.send('Waited 1 second');
});
app.listen(3000);

Pause a single Express endpoint:

var express = require('express'),
pause = require('connect-pause');

var app = express();
app.get('/', pause(1000), function(req, res){
res.send('Waited 1 second');
});
app.listen(3000);

Pass an error to be returned after the delay:

var express = require('express'),
pause = require('connect-pause');

var app = express();
app.get('/', pause(1000, new Error('Send 500')), function(req, res){
res.send('Waited 1 second');
});
app.listen(3000);

When to use
===
