Usage

var returnHandler = require('apis-return');

//Some resource class here
Resource.prototype.get = function(id, cb) {
    db.get(id, returnHandler("NotFound", cb)); 
    //this will return standard 404 NotFound if error or db returns non result
}

returnHandler(error, name, cb);
returnHandler(error, cb);
