v0.7.0

Features

• Add --open/-o option, which will open the page in browser automatically
• Return an error page which supports live-reload when failing to access any page, in order to make sure that live-reload won't be interrupted. For example, when attempting to access a page that does not exist, the server would response a blank page in the previous version, and even when this file was modified, the page wouldn't be refreshed.

Refactor

• The short name of --host option was renamed to -H in order to avoid conflict with -h (--help)
• The default value of --host/-H was changed to 0.0.0.0
• The default value of --port/-p was changed to 0

API

• Revamp the API

Before:

listen("127.0.0.1", 8080, "./").await?;

After:

listen("127.0.0.1:8080", "./").await?.start().await?;
