HTTP/1¶

The HTTP/1 is the protocol by default and can be used by specifying a host address via the -a, --host (SERVER_HOST) argument, the port of the host via -p, --port (SERVER_PORT) and the directory of the static files using the -d, --root (SERVER_ROOT) argument.

Tips

Either --host, --port and --root have defaults (optional values) so they can be specified or omitted as required.
The server provides Termination Signal handling with Graceful Shutdown ability by default.

Below is an example of how to run the server using HTTP/1.

static-web-server \
    --host 127.0.0.1 \
    --port 8787 \
    --root ./my-public-dir
