Description

Static web server using the builtin Go http library.

It supports HTTP/2 and TLS.

This snap provides both an h2static command that can be run by any user, with access to the user home directory, and a system-wide daemon service.

The service can be configured with the following options (via snap set):

• allow-outside-symlinks

  allow access to symlinks whose target is outside of the serve-path. This is disabled by default since it might be a security issue.

• basic-auth

  content of the crednetials file for Basic Authorization. Each line should contain colon-separated pair of username and SHA512 hash of the password.

• disable-h2

  set to true to disable HTTP/2 support.

• disable-index

  set to true to disable directory index.

• disable-lookup-with-suffix

  set to true to disable disable matching files with .htm(l) suffix for paths without suffix.

• listen

  the address:port for the service to listen on. The address can be omitted (e.g. :8080) to bind all addresses.

  If this option empty or null, the service will not be started.

• request-path-prefix

  a path prefix to be stripped for the request. This is mostly useful in the case where the server is behind a reverse proxy with a prefix set.

• serve-path

  the directory to serve content from. it's set to $SNAP_COMMON if not specified.

  If the removable-media interface is connected, paths under /media can also be used.

• show-dotfiles

  set to true to show hidden files (starting with a dot).

• tls.cert, tls.key

  ASCII contents of the TLS certificate and key. If both are set, HTTPS support will be enabled.
