actionHero.js is a multi-transport API Server with integrated cluster capabilites and delayed tasks. The goal of actionHero is to create an easy-to-use toolkit for making reusable & scalable APIs. Clients connected to an actionHero server can consume the api, consume static content, and communicate with each other. actionHero is cluster-ready, with built in support for background tasks, 0-downtime deploys, and more.

Currently actionHero supports:

• Web Clients: HTTP, HTTPS
• Socket Clients: TCP (telnet), TLS
• Web Socket (Faye) clients: HTTP, HTTPS

You can also make your own servers and transports.
