Package Exports
- super-simple-web-server
- super-simple-web-server/index.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (super-simple-web-server) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
super-simple-web-server
Serve static files on localhost with http & https.
TO INSTALL
npm install super-simple-web-server
or
Clone repo and run npm install
in the root directory.
TO RUN
npm start [</path/to/web/root>] [</path/to/some/middleware>]
Default path
Default path is your current working directory. Override by passing an optional path to your desired web root directory.
Default ports
These can be changed by passing through environment variables when starting the server:
SSWS_HTTP_PORT
= http port (defaults to 3000
)
SSWS_HTTPS_PORT
= https port (defaults to 3001
)
Default IP
The default IP 127.0.0.1
which should convieniently map to localhost
.
Pro tip: Setting USE_LOCALHOST = false
in index.js
will instead scan for existing bound IP addresses on your machine via os.networkInterfaces()
. The last available will be used.
Point to some middleware
To add middleware set the third arg to a path that resolves to a file exporting a function like so...
module.exports = (app) => {
app.use(someCoolThingHere);
}
