//Here is a simple example. Pretend we are using express.

var app = express();
var config;
var db = new ConfigServerThing();

//This part is useless because the main loop exits before we call app.listen()
db.find(function(err, config) {

  if(err) throw err;
  config = config;

  app.listen(3000);

});

app.get('/', function(req,res) {
    
    if(config.SHOW_ROOT)
      return res.send('root');    
      
      res.send(404);
