# HTTP Live Simulator
`http-live-simulator` is a simple http file server for local development written in Node.JS. It is similar, for instance, to python's `http.server` module or node's `http-server`, but with one major difference: It adds a random time delay of 200-500 milliseconds before serving each request in order to simulate a live hosted environment where such delays are a common occurrence.
## Installation:
`npm install -g http-live-simulator`
## Usage:
```
$ http-live
Serving Directory: /your/current/path
Port 8080
Delay: 200-500ms
```
You can change the behaviour of http live server with following optional arguments:
```
Optional arguments:
-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
-v, --version Show program's version number and exit.
-p PORT, --port PORT Port number for running the server
-m MIN_DELAY, --min-delay MIN_DELAY
Minimum delay in milliseconds
-x MAX_DELAY, --max-delay MAX_DELAY
Maximum delay in milliseconds
```
## Uninstallation:
`npm uninstall -g http-live-simulator`
