An image resizing service to sit **behind** a dynamic cache (like CloudFront).
npm install servoAn image resizing service to sit behind a dynamic cache (like CloudFront).
Install Servo with npm.
``bash`
npm install -g servo
Set up your configuration (see below) and simply run
`bash`
SERVO_CONFIG=/my/config.js servo
Servo uses a JS/JSON file for configuration that needs to be passed in through a
SERVO_CONFIG environment variable.

Servo responds to a few requests.

request
`
GET /path/to/resource[-routine][.extension]
[?servoKey=servoKey[&ttl=seconds][&filename=contentDispositionFilename]]
No authentication is required for this request. If specific image at the
requested size and extension has yet to be generated, it will be generated on
the fly, otherwise the cloudfront cache should catch it. If authenticated, will
redirect to a signed URL for the requested resource.
response
`
(requested resource or empty body and error status code)

request
`
PUT /[explicit route]
servoKey=servoKey
(file=@imgA.jpg) OR (key=s3Key [bucket=default-bucket])
routine=strip;scale:100,100 (optional)
`
A Servo Key is required in the header of the request to PUT resources into S3.
When an explicit route is not specified, files are saved as their hashed value.
The resource mime type is extracted from the file's extension and stored as a
header in S3. An optional routine option may be added to put the image through
a series of GraphicsMagick operations before uploading.
