wait-for-localhost-cli v3.1.0

wait-for-localhost-cli

Wait for localhost to be ready from the command-line

Useful if you need a local server to be ready to accept requests before executing the next command.

I personally use this to wait for webpack-dev-server to be ready before launching Electron.

Install

$ npm install --global wait-for-localhost-cli

Usage

$ wait-for-localhost --help

  Usage
    $ wait-for-localhost [port]

  Options
    --use-get  Use the HTTP-method GET instead of HEAD to test if the server is ready
    --path     Use a custom path. For example, /health for a health-check endpoint.

  Example
    $ wait-for-localhost 8080 && echo 'Server is ready'
