This helper creates a simple JSON API that accepts JSON request data and returns a JSON response. It can be used two different ways, depending on the callback's signature. The incoming data is an object with three properties: - "method": the request method used - "body": the data sent in the body of the request - "query": any query parameters sent in the request If the "arity" (the number of arguments) of the provided callback function is 1, then you can return a response directly, or a promise that eventually resolves to the data. Here's an example use: https://runkit.com/runkit/json-endpoint-example-1 If the "arity" is 2, then the second parameter is a "done" callback that you should call yourself whenever you want to return a response. You can pass the response as the only argument to the callback. Here's an example use: https://runkit.com/runkit/json-endpoint-example-2

    what are the arguments "anExport" and "aFunction" and where are the passed in?

    I think those are just placeholder for "aFunction" that you would write yourself. anException is, likewise, an error that you are watching for.

    It looks like this package only works up to node v6.17.1. Is that correct? Is there another library we should be using?
