Houston :: A static files server based on node.js
A Static file server, simple as you hear.
The main purpose of Houston is to provide a static, 0 dependencies (just mime), server.
Installation
Asuming that you have installed node.js and npm
> npm install -g houston
Or:
> git clone https://github.com/alejandromg/Houston.git
> cd Houston
> ln -s bin/houston ~/bin
Then:
# To start the server in the current dir
> houston
This will open a new window in your browser, or go to http://localhost:8000/
To start the server in a different port:
> sudo houston --port 80
> houston -p 8010
> houston -p=8010
All of them are valid, also you can define a different path:
> houston --path=/home/ --port=8010
Also you can avoid the new browser window with:
> houston -b false
