The middleware examples with proxy-by-url do not work for my config

[digitalrinaldo]

Hi,

url-middleware.js
url-middleware2.js

and the example at the proxy-by-url workspace

/private/tmp/http-proxy/1.js:18
});
^

node.js:134
throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick
^
SyntaxError: Unexpected token ;
at Module._compile (module.js:397:25)
at Object..js (module.js:408:10)
at Module.load (module.js:334:31)
at Function._load (module.js:293:12)
at Array. (module.js:421:10)
at EventEmitter._tickCallback (node.js:126:26)

I can't seem to get this example

require('http-proxy').createServer(
require('proxy-by-url')({
'/database': { port: 5984, host: 'localhost' },
})
).listen(8000)

or the url-middleware.js example to work with node I am getting a
unexpected token

m1:node rinaldo$ node url-middleware.js

/opt/node/url-middleware.js:44
});
^

m1:node rinaldo$ npm info proxy-by-url

uh, this is a syntax error in /private/tmp/http-proxy/1.js

this looks like a missing { or (
or possibly a comment //
on the last line, or an unclosed block comment. /*

it looks like the way you have your enviroment setup is very odd.

have a look in /private/tmp/http-proxy/1.js

also, there was a mistake in proxy-by-url please install the new version. (then your pasted code will work)

[dominictarr]

sorry, I just realized that you had already emailed me about this.

please install/pull the new version and also cd examples && npm install

also fixed a small mistake in proxy-by-url, now it's at 0.0.1

this should work now, please confirm.

Works on my mac with 0.4.9 fails on 4.11-pre on centos

[dominictarr]

cool, thanks.

will check this again when 0.4.11 is offically released.
