Socket for Jira Is Now Available
Socket for Jira lets teams turn alerts into Jira tickets with manual creation, automated ticketing rules, and two-way sync.
This packages makes it very easy to share directories using now!
When running the ns command, a temporary directory gets created. Within that directory, now-serve will insert a brand new package.json that conforms to now's requirements and therefore contains a start script that runs a new instance of list when being executed on our servers.
All of this happens completely automatically. So after running the command, the only thing you need to do is wait a few seconds until your files have been deployed and share the link! :boom:
Install it (needs at least node v6)
$ npm install now-serve -g
Run it
$ ns <file | dir> [options]
You can find a list of all options below.
| Usage | Description |
|---|---|
| -h, --help | Output all available options |
| -V, --version | The version tag of the now-serve instance on your device |
| ‑c, ‑‑cmd [command] | The command that should be run when starting |
| -n, --name [name] | The name for your deployment |
| ‑p, ‑‑packages <names> | Custom packages to add to dependencies: "gulp, koa" |
| -a, --arguments | A string containing arguments that will be passed on to now: "force, debug" (basically the names of the flags but without dashes) |
| -s, --single | Serve single page apps with only one index.html in the root directory |
npm uninstall now-serve -gnpm linknpm startYeeha! Now can use the ns command everywhere.
