# devserver [![Crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/devserver.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/devserver)

An extremely tiny tool to serve a static folder locally.

This tool is only for local development and makes no effort to be secure for other purposes.

**DO NOT USE DEVSERVER IN PRODUCTION**

devserver should only be used for locally hosting files on a trusted network.

devserver does not properly handle the attacks robust servers must withstand on an open network.

## Installation

```

cargo install devserver

```

## Usage

Open a command line and navigate to the directory you'd like to host then run:

```

devserver

```

Visit http://localhost:8080 or https://localhost:8080 to see your hosted content.

## Options

`--reload`  Automatically refresh pages when a file in the hosted folder changes.

`--address` Pass an address like "127.0.0.1:8080" or "localhost:8000" to change the address the server will host on.

`--path`    Changes the directory to be hosted.

`--header`  Pass a header like "Access-Control-Allow-Origin='\*'". Use multiple `--header` flags for multiple headers.

`--help`    Explains available options.
