nanoserver v1.0.0

Nanoserver

Sometimes you just need a tiny web server.

Usage

Install with npm:

$ npm install nanoserver

Then start a webserver where you need one:

$ cd MyProject/
$ nanoserver

> Server listening on port 3000 with directory /Users/foo/Projects/MyProject

If you really need it, you can customise the port nanoserver runs on with the -p option:

$ nanoserver -p 8080
> Server listening on port 8080 with directory /Users/foo/Projects/MyProject

Normally the nanoserver does not log anything. You can enable logging to the console with the -l option:

$ nanoserver -l
> Server listening on port 3000 with directory /Users/foo/Projects/MyProject
> GET: /index.html

If you're doing performance testing (good on you!), you can use fake slow responses by appending the ?delay=<milliseconds> query parameter to URLs loaded from nanoserver.

For example, to delay loading an image by one second you would include it like this:

<img src="/images/my/funny.gif?delay=1000">
