This GitHub action creates a single-file server that:
- runs anywhere (see jart/cosmopolitan)
- serves static files (with optional fallback)
- is extensible through an extensive scripting interface
- uses: TimonLukas/action-static-redbean@v1 with: # specifies version to be fetched from redbean.dev version: "latest" # Location of the finished executable executable-name: "redbean.com" # Location of static files to include input: "dist" # Fallback file (for history API-based routing), `false` to disable fallback: "index.html" # On launch, open the users preferred browser pointing to this path, `false` to disable launch: "/" # Cache redbean executable instead of fetching every time, `false` to disable cache: true # Example: static server for `./build/*` without fallback using redbean version x.y.z - uses: TimonLukas/action-static-redbean@v1 with: version: "x.y.z" input: "build" fallback: false - run: mv ./redbean.com $FOO
Generally, anything beyond serving files statically can be approached using the LUA api. The fallback option itself is actually implemented as:
function OnHttpRequest() if not RoutePath() then ServeAsset('$FALLBACK') end end
To add any behavior, add .init.lua with your own content into your input directory.
Depending on your project it might be worth to look into frameworks for redbean like fullmoon.
