CDN server written in node.js

Question

I am trying to find an example of a CDN server written in nodejs that does the following:

• Minification of CSS & JS
• Pre-Compiling LESS
• Pre-Compiling CoffeeScript
• Static Redirection if content already available in another bucket
• A management interface

I realize that something like this already exists (S3 etc) but my interest is academic. I am interested if something like this has been done in node, and how.

Answer 1

You should have a look at express-cdn, a module to deliver compressed, minified and assets combined assets to CDN servers (Currently Amazon S3). It lacks some management interface but implements a couple of features you require.
