Static web server
$ brew tap nbari/homebrew-www
next
$ brew install www
To install the port:
$ cd /usr/ports/www/go-www/ && make install clean
To add the package:
$ pkg install go-www
Because of the need to share, test via HTTP the contents of a directory.
By typing www will start a web server and use as a document root the
directory where the command was call, a different document root may be specified
by using the -r option, for example:
$ www -r /tmp
By default www listen on port 8000, this can be changed by using the -p option:
$ www -p 80 (may need root privilages)
If TLS is required use the option -s and a domain name, for example:
$ www -s example.com
This will try to get a valid certificate by using letsencrypt but the port will always be 443
When using the -s use https option on the browser.
Example using tls and document root on port 8080:
$ www -s localhost -r /tmp -p 8080
