spa-http-server

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.
Installation via npm:

npm install http-server -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.

mkdir myapp
cd myapp/
jitsu install http-server

If you do not have jitsu installed you can install it via npm install jitsu -g

Usage

Starting http-server locally

node bin/http-server

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')

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

-o Open browser window after starting the server
-c Set cache time (in seconds) for cache-control max-age header, e.g. -c10 for 10 seconds (defaults to '3600'). To disable caching, use -c-1.
-U or --utc Use UTC time format in log messages.
-P or --proxy Proxies all requests which can't be resolved locally to the given url. e.g.: -P http://someurl.com
