A long time coming, the next major release for http-server! This will be the final release before a switch to actual semantic versioning. This release's major achievement is the internalization of the functionality of the now-abandoned ecstatic library, thus removing it as a dependency. Huge thanks to @zbynek for help on that front, as well as several other included changes.

Breaking changes:

  • No longer sends the header server: http-server-${version} with every response

New features:

  • All responses include Accept-Ranges: bytes to advertise support for partial requests

Fixes

  • Removes dependency on the abandoned ecstatic library
  • Dependency upgrades to fix several security alerts
  • http-server -a 0.0.0.0 will now do what you told it to do, rather than overriding the address to 127.0.0.1
  • Will no longer serve binary files with a charset in the Content-Type, fixing serving WebAssembly files, among other issues
  • Support .mjs MimeType correctly

Internal

  • Switched from Travis to GH Actions for CI
