static-server-dev

A simple express server with https, http2, compression and serve-static

usage

npm i static-server-dev

or

npm i -D static-server-dev

import devServer from "static-server-dev";

devServer();

Thats it... just go to localhost:8888 You can also pass options and instantiate the server, so you can, for example close it later from the main thread.

import devServer from "static-server-dev";

// options, with defaults shown
const server = devServer({
	port: 8888,
	directory: "public",
	cors: true,                 // allow CORS default true
	key: ".ssl/localhost.key",  // path to your local
	cert: ".ssl/localhost.crt"  // certs and keys to enable https
});

const closeTheServer = () => {
	server.close();
}

TODO

1. Usd try-ports to dynamically set the port if passed port is taken
2. use nodes built in http2 module to replace spdy
