HTTPS Support

[oscartbeaumont]

Does this module have https support?

[jlxip]

Personally I don't need this. And I would vote against it. In my opinion, all NodeJS-related traffic should go through another program, such as NGINX, before going out to the internet. It's much easier to configure SSL/TLS in NGINX than in any other program. And you can have subdomains easily for every instance of NodeJS instead of using a bunch of random ports.

It currently doesn't create an https connection by default. Though, it wouldn't be hard or a bad idea to add, just small set of extra config parameters would be needed. When I get a little more time I'll add it and push a PR for it.

@oscartbeaumont as @jlxip said there are better ways to deal with SSL traffic, but the ability to do such things would make this library better. @echopoint are you will to pick this up or you want me to take a go at it?

If you want to hammer it out first I won't be offended. I just don't know if I can get to it this week.

@echopoint let me see what I can do, I will keep updating this thread with progress, if you don't see me comment anything I have made no progress 😆

I am going to build this feature today and do a pull request when I am done.

[oscartbeaumont]

The other thing is can I modify the example server in the README.MD to import the path module so that the code works without changing it? Also do you want an example of https adding under that in the README or somewhere else?

[jlxip]

@oscartbeaumont That'd be good hahaha. I had to write the line that imports path every time I copy-pasted.

I have done a pull request on my changes.
