filesrv is a simple tool to serve a directory over HTTP and automatically refresh web pages in the browser when files change. It can be useful for web development or any situation where you want to quickly share a static website with others.
You can install filesrv using go get:
go install github.com/atony2099/filesrv@latestAlternatively, you can download a pre-built binary from the releases page and add it to your PATH.
To start the server, run:
filesrv -port [PORT] -dir [DIRECTORY]where [PORT] is the port number to use (default is 8080) and [DIRECTORY] is the directory to serve (default is the current directory).
Once the server is running, open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:[PORT], where [PORT] is the port number you specified. You should see a file browser for the directory you specified.
Whenever a file in the directory is modified, the browser will automatically refresh to show the updated content.
