Share a file quickly using a Java web server
My favorite trick to quickly share a file within a network is to go to its directory and spin up a web server. See how it's done in Python and Java!
My favorite trick to quickly share a file within a network is to go to its directory and spin up a web server.
In Python 3 that’s this classic one-liner:
cd $directory && python3 -m http.server 8000Anyone opening in http://<your-machine>:8000 in their browser, will see the files of directory and is able to download them.
Since JDK18 Java can do a similar trick, there the future classic one-liner is:
cd $directory && jwebserver -b 0.0.0.0
