Documentation

Overview

Binary http_server exposes an HTTP interface for testing the xrefs and filetree services backed by a combined serving table. The server places the port on which it listens into the given --port_file. Requesting "http://localhost:$(<"$PORT_FILE")/quitquitquit" will forcibly exit the server successfully. Requesting /alive will return a 200 HTTP status once the server is launched.
