The webapp
package contains the core functionality that makes a
Meteor project into a web application. It is a "value added HTTP
server" that includes not just a web server, but also advanced app
serving functionality like over-the-air mobile app updates and HTML5
Appcache support. For more information, see the Webapp project
page.
The webapp
package is implemented using the
npm connect
module. webapp
exposes
the connect API for handling requests through Webapp.connectHandlers
. See
https://docs.meteor.com/#/full/webapp for more details
If you'd like direct access to the connect module (for example, to use one of
the middleware handlers that it defines), you can find it at
WebAppInternals.NpmModules.connect.module
. Its version can be read at
WebAppInternals.NpmModules.connect.version
.
The version of connect
used may change incompatibly from version to version of
Meteor (or we may even replace it with an entirely different implementation);
use at your own risk.
