docserve

Minimally configurable static web server.

What

Serve static html files from the current directory locally, by default on port 3000, with millisecond response times as provided by actix-web.

Why

Other off the shelf one liner web server either did not provide the correct behavior for cargo-doc relative paths, or had unsatisfactory performance.

Typical workflow

cd mycrate
cargo doc
cd target/doc
docserve &
xdg-open http://localhost:3000/mycrate
