Using http-server -P parameter to use a local virtual domain, we still need to update /etc/hosts file to be able to access the local virtual domain using http-server.
Describe the solution you'd like
My idea is to find a way to use a new virtual domain without modifying /etc/hosts file. This can be achieved by using dns to modify the OS host file and use dns.lookup() to pull from the host file.
What's the problem this feature will solve?
