Example


grunt.initConfig({

    'http-server': {

        'dev': {

            // the server root directory
            root: <path>,

            // the server port
            // can also be written as a function, e.g.
            // port: function() { return 8282; }
            port: 8282,

            // the host ip address
            // If specified to, for example, "127.0.0.1" the server will
            // only be available on that ip.
            // Specify "0.0.0.0" to be available everywhere
            host: "0.0.0.0",

            runInBackground: true|false,

            // specify a logger function. By default the requests are
            // sent to stdout.
            logFn: function(req, res, error) { },

            // Proxies all requests which can't be resolved locally to the given url
