Installation

$ pub global activate webdev

Usage

webdev provides two commands: serve and build.

webdev serve

$ webdev help serve
Run a local web development server and a file system watcher that rebuilds on
changes.

Usage: webdev serve [arguments] [<directory>[:<port>]]...
-h, --help                        Print this usage information.
-o, --output                      A directory to write the result of a build to.
                                  Or a mapping from a top-level directory in the
                                  package to the directory to write a filtered
                                  build output to. For example "web:deploy".
                                  A value of "NONE" indicates that no "--output"
                                  value should be passed to `build_runner`.
                                  (defaults to "NONE")

-r, --[no-]release                Build with release mode defaults for builders.
    --[no-]build-web-compilers    If a dependency on `build_web_compilers` is
                                  required to run.
                                  (defaults to on)

-v, --verbose                     Enables verbose logging.
    --auto                        Automatically performs an action after each
                                  build:

                                  restart: Reload modules and re-invoke main
                                  (loses current state)
                                  refresh: Performs a full page refresh.
                                  [restart, refresh]
    --chrome-debug-port           Specify which port the Chrome debugger is
                                  listening on. If used with launch-in-chrome
                                  Chrome will be started with the debugger
                                  listening on this port.

    --[no-]debug                  Enable the launching of DevTools (Alt + D).
                                  Must use with either --launch-in-chrome or
                                  --chrome-debug-port.

    --hostname                    Specify the hostname to serve on.
                                  (defaults to "localhost")


    --[no-]launch-in-chrome       Automatically launches your application in
                                  Chrome with the debug port open. Use
                                  chrome-debug-port to specify a specific port
                                  to attach to an already running chrome
                                  instance instead.

    --log-requests                Enables logging for each request to the
                                  server.
