Philippgille Serve Versions Save

Note: Windows and Linux users who have serve v0.3.0 don't need to update to this version, because it only fixes a bug in v0.3.1 and v0.3.1 only contained a bugfix for macOS.

• Fixed: serve v0.3.1 reports version v0.3.0 when using serve -v

Note: This release only contains a bugfix for macOS. There's no need to update from v0.3.0 to this version on Windows or Linux.

• Fixed: serve crashes at start on macOS due to a bug in UPX, which is used to compress the executable file (issue #27)
  • See https://github.com/upx/upx/issues/222
  • Only macOS is affected!

v0.3.0 (2019-05-04)

• Added: Optional generation and use of a self signed certificate to serve files via HTTPS instead of HTTP (issue #9)
• Added: Optional basic authentication (issue #10)
• Added: Option to bind to a specific network interface (issue #19)
• Added: Exit with an error when using the -d flag and the argument is not a directory, the directory doesn't exist or the directory is not readable
• Added: Handling of the directory as positional argument. We keep this undocumented for now to not promote its use, but it was a common source of problems (where a directory was passed as positional argument and then "." was served), which are now mitigated.
• Improved: Updated building the snap with snapcraft 3.x instead of its 2.4x legacy mode
• Fixed: serve -h lead to exit code 2 instead of 0
• Fixed: Wrong documentation URL in the Chocolatey Nuspec file (issue #18)

Breaking changes:

• Changed default port from 8100 to 8080, which is an official alternative to port 80 for HTTP
• Docker:
  • Changed default serving directory within the container from /share to /srv, which is a common directory for serving files
  • Moved -d flag from CMD to ENTRYPOINT, leading to fewer problems when using the Docker container with additional flags

v0.2.1 (2018-05-13)

• Improved: Increased interface table width to 80 for long interface names
• Fixed: No suggested URL in several cases (issue #7)
• Fixed: Snap package doesn't work (issue #14)

v0.2.0 (2018-05-01)

• Added: Version flag to print the version of the CLI
• Added: Test flag for a dry run which only prints the network interface table
• Improved: Released binaries are much smaller because they get shrinked with UPX (issue #1)
• Fixed: Network interface table looks bad on Windows (issue #2)
• Fixed: IPv4 address doesn't get printed for the main network interface on Windows (issue #3)

v0.1.0 (2018-05-01)

• Added: Basic temporary static file server that prints the local interfaces and their addresses
