servelo v0.0.1

serve

test server for javascript apps mainly for angular / yo / ngbp

Synopsis

This is a small tool to run very basic static file server to test webapps.

Installation

npm install serve --save-dev

hen edit package.json script. e.g.

scripts: {
	serve: "node ./node_modules/serve/bin/start --home yourWwwDir --port 3000
}

npm run serve

alternativly you can run init script in /bin/init which will create scripts and public direcotries, and creates start script in your main project folder and adds this line into the package.json scripts

serve: "node ./scripts/start --home public"

serve will use default port 3001, you can change any of that.

Use

npm

add run srcript into scripts

scripts: {
  start: "node ./bin/start --home yourWwwDirectory --port 3000"
  //or
  serve: "node ./bin/start --home yourWwwDirectory --port 3000"
}

the above will setup static http server running on port 3000 (default is 3001) and serving files from ./yourWwwDirectory relative to your npm package.json file

npm start

or

npm run serve
