// the server root directory
root: <path>,
// the server port
// can also be written as a function, e.g.
// port: function() { return 8282; }
port: 8282,
// the host ip address
// If specified to, for example, "127.0.0.1" the server will
// only be available on that ip.
// Specify "0.0.0.0" to be available everywhere
host: "0.0.0.0",
cache: <sec>,
showDir : true,
autoIndex: true,

ext: "html",
// run in parallel with other tasks
runInBackground: true|false,
// specify a logger function. By default the requests are
// sent to stdout.
logFn: function(req, res, error) { },
// Proxies all requests which can't be resolved locally to the given url
// Note this this will disable 'showDir'
proxy: "http://someurl.com",
/// Use 'https: true' for default module SSL configuration
/// (default state is disabled)
https: {
cert: "cert.pem",
key : "key.pem"
},
// Tell grunt task to open the browser
openBrowser : false,
// customize url to serve specific pages
