waiter

An easy-to-use CLI tool to set up a static file server in any directory.

Usage

To serve files from the current directory, just run:

$ waiter
Waiter: Serving '.' on port 3000!

The only argument to the executable is an optional path to change the directory from where files are served:

$ waiter /my/server/files
Waiter: Serving '/my/server/files' on port 3000!

By default, all requests are logged to stdout. To disable that, run with the flag --no-log.
To change the port of the server, run with -p <port> or --port <port>
