Does this action keep the server open until the end of the workflow?

[kopax-polyconseil]

Hello and thanks for sharing,

the doc doesn't state it, so can I please know if this action keep the server open until the end of the workflow?

If so, is there a way to kill it (other than kill -9)?

[Eun]

The webserver should stay open until the job ends, however there is no guarantee.

Having a kill option would be good yes. I guess somebody can implement this :)

[kopax-polyconseil]

Ok.

What do you mean no guarantee ? I think if there is no guarantee you should explain why, and also state it in the README file.

[Eun]

Well guarantee means that this action cannot guarantee the server is always running, it won’t monitor the server.

I think this can happen with any http service, it is not specific to this module.

This looks to be a cool add on btw: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/wait-on

I used the default config and when I do curl the base endpoint, I got this:

Run curl -vvvv http://localhost:3000

It seems it can't load default index.html as entry point. do you know how I can do that ?

[Eun]

Well maybe you should also request index.html Using

curl http://localhost:3000/index.html

[kopax-polyconseil]

Thisis what we did, that was the only way.
