Guaycuru Web Server

Static Web Server built on top of Node Simple Router

Install

From Node Package Manager:

  npm install guaycuru

or from source:

  git clone git://github.com/sandy98/guaycuru.git

Purpose

Serves static content with root at the directory it is run from.

Dependencies

Node Simple Router

Basic Usage

cd mywebdir
guaycuru

That's it

Well, almost. As of current version (0.0.7) Guaycuru is able (and will attempt to) run cgi programs located under its cgi directory, which defaults to cgi-bin. This may be configured through the command line, along the lines of: guaycuru [port] [cgi directory] Port defaults to 8000 and cgi directory, as was previously mentioned, defaults to "cgi-bin"

2014-03-28 v 0.2.0 Added "gallery mode" when invoked with -g parameter. When invoked in that way it will perform a slide show of images in the working directory instead of listing it.

2014-03-28 v 0.2.1 Provided /dir url as alternative method of listing a directory instead of performing slide show. Useful for navigating between directories and then performing the slide show when positionated in the chosen one.

Note

The name stands for an indian group that used to live in the sorroundings of my home town - no apaches or cherokees around here... -
