## Installation
```bash
cargo install http-server
```
Check for the installation to be successful.
```bash
http-server --help
```
## Usage
```
http-server [FLAGS] [OPTIONS] [root-dir]
```
### Flags
Flags are provided without any values. For example:
```
http-server --help
```
Help | N/A | `--help` | Prints help information
Version | `-V` | `--version` | Prints version information
Verbose | `-v` | `--verbose` | Prints output to console
### Options
Options receives a value and have support for default values as well.
```
http-server --host 127.0.0.1
```
Host | `-h` | `--host` | Address to bind the server | `127.0.0.1`
Port | `-p` | `--port` | Port to bind the server | `7878`
Configuration File | `-c` | `--config` | Specifies a configuration file. [Example](https://github.com/EstebanBorai/http-server/blob/main/fixtures/config.toml) | N/A
TLS | N/A | `--tls` | Enable TLS for HTTPS connections. Requires a Certificate and Key. [Reference](#tls-reference) | N/A
TLS Ceritificate | N/A | `--tls-cert` | Path to TLS certificate file. **Depends on `--tls`** | `cert.pem`
TLS Key | N/A | `--tls-key` | Path to TLS key file. **Depends on `--tls`** | `key.rsa`
TLS Key Algorithm | N/A | `--tls-key-algorithm` | Algorithm used to generate certificate key. **Depends on `--tls`** | `rsa`
## References
The following are some relevant details on features supported by this HTTP Server
solution that may be of the interest of the user.
### TLS Reference
The TLS solution supported for this HTTP Server is built with [rustls](https://github.com/ctz/rustls)
crate along with [hyper-rustls](https://github.com/ctz/hyper-rustls).
When running with TLS support you will need:
- A certificate
- A RSA Private Key for such certificate
A script to generate certificates and keys is available here [tls-cert.sh](./docs/tls-cert.sh).
This script relies on `openssl`, so make sure you have it installed in your system.
Run `http-server` as follows:
```sh
http-server --tls --tls-cert <PATH TO YOUR CERTIFICATE> --tls-key <PATH TO YOUR KEY> --tls-key-algorithm pkcs8
```
## Release
In order to create a release you must push a Git tag as follows
```sh
git tag -a <version> -m <message>
```
**Example**
```sh
git tag -a v0.1.0 -m "First release"
```
> Tags must follow semver conventions
> Tags must be prefixed with a lowercase `v` letter.
Then push tags as follows:
```sh
git push origin main --follow-tags
```
