npm install sharingEver wanted to share a certain directory on your network by running just a command? Then this module is exactly what you're looking for: It provides a neat interface for listing the directory's contents and switching into sub folders.
In addition, it's also awesome when it comes to serving static sites. If a directory contains an index.html, serve will automatically render it instead of serving directory contents, and will serve any .html file as a rendered page instead of file's content as plaintext.
Install it (needs at least Node LTS):
``bash`
npm install -g sharing
And run this command in your terminal:
`bash`
serve [options]
通过这条命令查看可用选项:
`bash`
serve help
If you set the --auth flag, the package will look for a username and password in the SERVE_USER and SERVE_PASSWORD environment variables.
As an example, this is how such a command could look like:
`bash`
SERVE_USER=leo SERVE_PASSWORD=1234 serve --auth
You can also use the package inside your application. Just load it:
`js`
const serve = require('serve')
And call it with flags (run this command for the full list):
`js`
const server = serve(__dirname, {
port: 1337,
ignore: ['node_modules']
})
Later in the code, you can stop the server using this method:
`js`
server.stop()
1. Fork this repository to your own GitHub account and then clone it to your local device
2. Uninstall serve if it's already installed: npm uninstall -g serve
3. Link it to the global module directory:
After that, you can use the serve` command everywhere. Here's a list of issues that are great for beginners.
This project used to be called "list" and "micro-list". But thanks to TJ Holowaychuk handing us the new name, it's now called "serve" (which is much more definite).
