websiteServer

It serves websites.....

• with autogenerated SSL certificates from Let’s Encrypt
• with HTTP2 server push for less round trips
• with automatic http to https redirects
• easy static file to path mappings

For an example of a website running on websiteServer visit ccochrane.com and the associated SSL report can be found here.

Use a mapping.json file to descibe which files to serve at which paths:

{
    "file-paths":[
        {
            "file":"pic.jpg",
            "path":"/pic.jpg"
        },
        {
            "file":"robot.txt",
            "path":"/robot.txt"
        },
    ],
    "push-file-paths":[
        {
            "file":"index.html",
            "path":"/",
            "push-paths":[
                "/pic.jpg"
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Then run websiteServer:

$ ./websiteServer -domain=example.com

Please make sure port 80 and 443 are accessible and DNS for your domain is set up. A full list of flags can be found via:
