Example of running a file server using //go:embed.

Run locally

go run main.go --addr "localhost:8080"

Run as a static binary

go build -o fileserver .
./fileserver --addr "localhost:8080"

Run as a Docker image

Please note socket bind to the virtual ethernet device (0.0.0.0) rather than loopback (localhost):

docker build . -t fileserver
docker run -it --rm -p 8080:8080 --user 65534:65534 \
  fileserver --addr 0.0.0.0:8080

Change the path

To change the path from static, update the path in both the constant variable, and the //go:embed directive:
