NAME

       caddy-respond - Simple, hard-coded HTTP responses for development and testing

SYNOPSIS

       caddy respond [flags]

DESCRIPTION

       Spins up a quick-and-clean HTTP server for development and testing purposes.

       With no options specified, this command listens on a random available port and answers HTTP requests with
       an  empty  200  response.  The listen address can be customized with the --listen flag and will always be
       printed to stdout.  If the listen address includes a port range, multiple servers will be started.

       If a final, unnamed argument is given, it will be treated as a status code (same as the --status flag) if
       it is a 3-digit number. Otherwise, it is used as the  response  body  (same  as  the  --body  flag).  The
       --status and --body flags will always override this argument (for example, to write a body that literally
       says "404" but with a status code of 200, do '--status 200 404').

       A  body  may be given in 3 ways: a flag, a final (and unnamed) argument to the command, or piped to stdin
       (if flag and argument are unset). Limited  template  evaluation  is  supported  on  the  body,  with  the
       following variables:

       {{.N}}        The server number (useful if using a port range)
       {{.Port}}     The listener port
       {{.Address}}  The listener address

       (See  the  docs  for  the  text/template  package  in the Go standard library for information about using
       templates: https://pkg.go.dev/text/template)

       Access/request logging and more verbose debug logging can also be enabled.

       Response headers may be added using the --header flag for each header field.
