http-server-spa-e2e: a command-line http server with SPA support
This is modification for http-server that allow to serve single page applications. Developed for e2e testing.
If I understand correctly it will never be merged, so I registered it on npm and you can install it like:
npm install http-server-spa-e2e
http-server
is a simple, zero-configuration command-line http server. It is powerful enough for production usage, but it's simple and hackable enough to be used for testing, local development, and learning.
Installing globally:
Installation via npm
:
npm install http-server-spa-e2e -g
This will install http-server
globally so that it may be run from the command line.
Usage:
http-server [path] [options]
[path]
defaults to ./public
if the folder exists, and ./
otherwise.
Now you can visit http://localhost:8080 to view your server
Available Options:
-p
Port to use (defaults to 8080)
-a
Address to use (defaults to 0.0.0.0)
-d
Show directory listings (defaults to 'True')
-i
Display autoIndex (defaults to 'True')
-g
or --gzip
When enabled (defaults to 'False') it will serve ./public/some-file.js.gz
in place of ./public/some-file.js
when a gzipped version of the file exists and the request accepts gzip encoding.

or --ext
Default file extension if none supplied (defaults to 'html')
-s
or --silent
Suppress log messages from output
--cors

header
-o
Open browser window after starting the server
-c

-U

-P
or --proxy
Proxies all requests which can't be resolved locally to the given url. e.g.: -P http://someurl.com

You should see the turtle image in the screenshot above hosted at that URL. See
the ./public
folder for demo content.
