Usage

From the folder you wish to serve, run:
2013-06-04 14:23:50 +01:00
```sh
2013-06-21 18:35:12 +01:00
$ ws
serving at http://localhost:8000
```
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
2013-06-04 14:23:50 +01:00
```
2013-06-05 20:06:54 +01:00
2013-06-15 00:41:43 +01:00
Use with Logstalgia
2013-06-15 00:52:03 +01:00
-------------------
2013-06-15 00:50:27 +01:00
The "default" log-format is compatible with [logstalgia](http://code.google.com/p/logstalgia/).
2013-06-15 00:41:43 +01:00
2013-06-15 00:47:51 +01:00
If you wrote your log output to disk, like so:
2013-06-15 00:41:43 +01:00
```sh
2013-06-15 00:47:51 +01:00
$ ws --log-format default > web.log
2013-06-15 00:41:43 +01:00
```
2013-06-15 00:50:27 +01:00
Then you could visualise in logstalgia with:
2013-06-15 00:41:43 +01:00
```sh
$ logstalgia web.log
```
2013-06-15 00:47:51 +01:00
Alternatively, pipe directly from ws into logstalgia for real-time visualisation:
2013-06-15 00:41:43 +01:00
```sh
2013-06-15 00:47:51 +01:00
$ ws --log-format default | logstalgia -
2013-06-15 00:41:43 +01:00
```
