var Response = require('http-response-object');
var res = new Response(200, {}, new Buffer('A ok'), 'http://example.com');
//res.statusCode === 200
//res.headers === {}
//res.body === new Buffer('A ok')
//res.url === 'http://example.com'
res.getBody();
// => new Buffer('A ok')

var res = new Response(404, {'Header': 'value'}, new Buffer('Wheres this page'), 'http://example.com');
//res.statusCode === 404
//res.headers === {header: 'value'}
//res.body === new Buffer('Wheres this page')
//res.url === 'http://example.com'
res.getBody();

Properties

• statusCode: Number - the status code of the response
• headers: Object - the headers of the response. The keys are automatically made lower case.
• body: Buffer | String - the body of the response. Should be a buffer on the server side, but may be a simple string for lighter weight clients.
• url: String - the url that was requested. If there were redirects, this should be the last url to get requested.
