how to use vhosts with express

I have the following code to setup two hosts on my local computer:

var express = require('express');

var app1 = express.createServer()
  , app2 = express.createServer()
  , main = express.createServer()

main.use(express.vhost('api.localhost:8000', app1)
    .use(express.vhost('localhost:8000', app2))

When I navigate to each of those endpoints, I get 404'd. What's up with that?

You should specify some routes on the respective servers. Something like:

app1.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
    res.send("welcome to app1!");
});

app2.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
    res.send("welcome to app2!");
});

Also, I don't think the port number is supposed to be part of the hostname. Try with api.localhost and localhost, respectively.
