});

Methods

• start(port, host, autoport, callback)
• stop(callback)
• restart(port, host, autoport, callback)
• ping(callback)
• list(callback)
• srv(name, root, port, index, callback)
• proxy(name, port, callback)
• exec(name, command, cwd, port, args, callback)
• fork(name, path, cwd, port, args, callback)
• remove(name, callback)

All callbacks has errdata format.

Methods automatically call connect(), if daemon socket not connected. Disconnect will done manually with method disconnect() (sync).

You can connect manually, just call method connect(callback).

Grunt task

module.exports = function(grunt) {
    grunt.loadTasks('dev-srv');
 
    grunt.initConfig({
        devsrv: {
            site: {
                mode: 'srv',
                name: 'mysite',
                root: './dist'
            },
            tests: {
                mode: 'exec',
                name: 'tests.mysite',
                command: 'npm',
                args: ['test']
            }
        }
    });
};

grunt devsrv:site

grunt devsrv:remove:site    # remove server with name 'site' 

Available modes: srv, proxy, exec, fork.

Grunt task just starts servers. You can't start and stop daemon. Server not removing when task done, runt devsev:remove:{name} task.
