Httphere is a project mainly written in Ruby, based on the MIT license.

Simply serves a directory's files via HTTP from the command line!

= httphere

httphere is a very small and simple ruby command-line HTTP file server.

== Features

Serves any file found at the current path, simply the content-type determined by shared-mime-types, and the content of the file.
Defaults to index.* for a root request.
Renders *.markdown as Markdown (html).

= To work on

Improve content-negotiation behind the scenes. For example, a file found to be "application/x-ruby" could just as well be transferred as "text/plain".

== Note on Patches/Pull Requests

Fork the project.
Make your feature addition or bug fix.
Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
