Static Web Server

A blazing fast static files-serving web server powered by Rust Iron. ⚡

Static Web Server is a small (1.4M static binary) and fast web server to serving static files like html files or assets.

It's also an option to deploy it inside a Docker container.

Status: It's in beta yet. Feel free to contribute.

Usage

Server is configured via environment variables:

• SERVER_NAME: Name for server. Default my-static-server.
• SERVER_HOST: Host address (E.g 127.0.0.1). Default [::].
• SERVER_PORT: Host port. Default 80.
• SERVER_ROOT: Root directory path of static files. Default ./public.
• SERVER_ASSETS: Assets directory path for add cache headers functionality. Default ./assets but relative to the root.
