Here is a simple Express App throwing up an API. (see demo).
The express code is just
var api = new Geode('username', {countryCode: "US", language: 'en'});
app.get('/:collection.:format', function(req, res){
if(req.params.collection && req.params.format){
api[req.params.collection](req.query, function(err, collection){
res[req.params.format]({status : 200, results : collection});
});
}else{
res.send('404');
}
})
Make sure to install the development dependecies npm install --dev
