NPM version Dependency Status Analytics

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, then run

$ 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:

$ ws
serving at http://localhost:8000

If you wish to serve a different directory, run:

$ ws -d ~/mysite/

If you wish to override the default port (8000), use --port or -p:

$ ws --port 9000
serving at http://localhost:9000

Use a built-in or custom Connect logger format with --log-format:

$ ws --log-format short

Use with Logstalgia

The "default" log-format is compatible with logstalgia.

If you wrote your log output to disk, like so:

$ ws --log-format default > web.log

Then you could visualise in logstalgia with:

$ logstalgia web.log

Alternatively, pipe directly from ws into logstalgia for real-time visualisation:

$ ws --log-format default | logstalgia -

Use with glTail

To use with glTail, write your log to disk using the "default" format:

$ ws -f default > web.log

Then specify this file in your glTail config:

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