local-web-server
================
Fires up a simple, static web server on a given port. Use for local web development or file sharing (directory browsing enabled).

Install
-------
Install [Node.js](http://nodejs.org), then run

```sh
$ npm install -g local-web-server
```

*Linux/Mac users may need to run the above with `sudo`*

Usage
-----
From the folder you wish to serve, run:
```sh
$ ws
serving at http://localhost:8000
```

If you wish to serve a different directory, run:
```sh
$ ws -d ~/mysite/
```

If you wish to override the default port (8000), use `--port` or `-p`: 
```sh
$ ws --port 9000
serving at http://localhost:9000
```

Use a built-in or custom [Connect logger format](http://www.senchalabs.org/connect/middleware-logger.html) with `--log-format`:
```sh
$ ws --log-format short
```

Use with Logstalgia
-------------------
The "default" log-format is compatible with [logstalgia](http://code.google.com/p/logstalgia/).

If you wrote your log output to disk, like so:
```sh
$ ws --log-format default > web.log
```

Then you could visualise in logstalgia with:
```sh
$ logstalgia web.log
```

Alternatively, pipe directly from ws into logstalgia for real-time visualisation:
```sh
$ ws --log-format default | logstalgia -
```

Use with glTail
---------------
To use with [glTail](http://www.fudgie.org), write your log to disk using the "default" format: 
```sh
$ ws -f default > web.log
```

Then specify this file in your glTail config: 

```yaml
servers:
    dev:
        host: localhost
        source: local
        files: /Users/Lloyd/Documents/MySite/web.log
        parser: apache
        color: 0.2, 0.2, 1.0, 1.0
```
