Node Build Content Server

A simple Node.js server that serves static content files and provides an endpoint to trigger installation scripts.

Description

This project consists of a dual-purpose server:

1. A static file server (port 8080) that serves content from a specified folder
2. A script execution server (port 3000) with an endpoint /install_xbox that triggers a bash script

Installation

1. Clone this repository
2. Install dependencies:

Usage

Where:

• <content_folder_path>: Path to the folder containing static content files to be served
• <install_bash_path>: Path to the bash script to be executed when the installation endpoint is triggered

Example:

npm start ./public /path/to/install_script.sh
