how do I send a file to a visitor?
example if I visit 127.0.0.1:8080/getfile/15ca691e-f886-41e0-abfd-3616655905fb.zip from the browser I should be able to download the file..

is there a response function which I can use?
This is what I am trying to achieve example:

void getFile(HTTPServerRequest req, HTTPServerResponse res){
  string file = std.path.buildNormalizedPath("inventory/files/"~req.file);
  res.download(file, "200");
  // the file is downloaded and a 200 server response is sent as a header
}

I figured it out...

void downloadFile(HTTPServerRequest req, HTTPServerResponse res){
	string s = std.path.buildNormalizedPath(std.file.getcwd()~"/data/inventory/15ca691e-f886-41e0-abfd-3616655905fb.epub");
	string filename = std.path.baseName(s);
	ubyte[] file = cast(ubyte[])std.file.read(s);
	res.writeBody(file, 200, "application/epub+zip");
}
