static-serve

Static-serve is a very simple and efficient static file server written in Go.

Usage:
	-p: ports to serve on (default: 8100)
	-d: the directories of static files to host (default: ./)
	-e: the files to serve in case of error 404 (- to disable error404 handler)
	-l: log access requests
	-hport: the port on which /health and /ready endpoints should be served
	-r	log request/response headers
	-tls-cert string
		path to a TLS certificate
	-tls-key string
		path to the key of the TLS certificate
	-v: verbose logging (e.g. when handling error 404)
	    Ports, directories and error404 flags can be specified multiple times,
	    but need to be specified the same amount of times.
	-version
	    print the version and exit

Static-serve does not show directory listings, it only serves files.

Since static-serve uses Go's http.FileServer we have the following features out of the box:

• basic mime type detection
• caching headers
• range requests

It's possible to serve over TLS by specifying both --tls-cert and --tls-key file paths.

Not supported:

• Dynamic pages (e.g. templating, changing response body, ...). It's called static-serve for a reason 😉
