[![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/responselike.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/responselike)

Returns a streamable response object similar to a [Node.js HTTP response stream](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_incomingmessage). Useful for formatting cached responses so they can be consumed by code expecting a real response.

## Install

```shell
npm install --save responselike
```

Or if you're just using for testing you'll want:

```shell
npm install --save-dev responselike
```

## Usage

```js
const Response = require('responselike');

const response = new Response(200, { foo: 'bar' }, Buffer.from('Hi!'), 'https://example.com');

response.statusCode;
// 200
response.headers;
// { foo: 'bar' }
response.body;
// <Buffer 48 69 21>
response.url;
// 'https://example.com'

response.pipe(process.stdout);
// Hi!
```


## API

### new Response(statusCode, headers, body, url)

Returns a streamable response object similar to a [Node.js HTTP response stream](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_class_http_incomingmessage).

#### statusCode

Type: `number`

HTTP response status code.

#### headers

Type: `object`

HTTP headers object. Keys will be automatically lowercased.

#### body
