Using it

Open File > Add Package
Paste the URL into top right search https://github.com/yene/GCDWebServer
Extend your project, for example start the server in your didFinishLaunchingWithOptions

import UIKit
import GCDWebServer

@main
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
  let webServer = GCDWebServer()

  func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
    webServer.addDefaultHandler(forMethod: "GET", request: GCDWebServerRequest.self, processBlock: {request in
      return GCDWebServerDataResponse(html:"<html><body><p>Hello World</p></body></html>")
    })
    webServer.start(withPort: 8080, bonjourName: "GCD Web Server")
    print("Visit \(webServer.serverURL) in your web browser")
    return true
  }
  // ...
}

Serving Static Directory

Drag the folder containing your html files into the Xcode project. In this example the folder is called dist and has an index.html file inside.

During development make sure to disable cache.

import UIKit
import GCDWebServer

@main
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
	let webServer = GCDWebServer()

	func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {

		let subdir = Bundle.main.resourceURL!.appendingPathComponent("dist").path
		webServer.addGETHandler(forBasePath: "/", directoryPath: subdir, indexFilename: "index.html", cacheAge: 3600, allowRangeRequests: true)
		webServer.start(withPort: 8080, bonjourName: "GCD Web Server")
		print("Visit \(webServer.serverURL) in your web browser")
		return true
	}
  // ...
}
