grunt-contrib-connect

grunt-contrib-connect is
stand alone grunt task server.
This is used for testing static contents and javascript using simple server.

How to use

This is required grunt-task. If you aren’t familiar with grunt, please see Grunt(other entry).

package.json

"devDependencies": {
    "grunt": "~0.4.5",
    "grunt-contrib-connect": "*"
  }
}

Add grunt-contrib-connect

Gruntfile.js

module.exports = function(grunt) {

    grunt.initConfig({
        connect: {
            local: {
                options: {
                    keepalive: true,
                    port: 8000
                }
            }
        }
    });

    grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-connect');
};

Run

grunt connect

In nodejs

Unfortunately, this works only static contents(included javascript)
Nodejs express routing doesn’t work.

public/index.html

<html>
<body>
Hello, World!
</body>
</html>

You can access
http://localhost:8000/public/index.html
