A web server serving local static files.

The easiest way to install swift-web is via mint.

mint install adam-fowler/swift-web

git clone https://github.com/adam-fowler/swift-web
swift build -c release

And then copy .build/release/swift-web to a folder in your $PATH

To serve files from the current folder run

swift web

This will run a web server bound to port 8001. Type localhost:8001/<filename> into your web browser to view a file.

To serve files from a particular folder run

swift web <folder>

You can also change the port the server uses with the --port option.

swift web <folder> --port 8080
