Local Web Server


Add DNS Domains, Enable dnsmasq daemon

This will route requests to any url ending in .build back to your own computer. The goal is to use urls like http://example.com.build for development while you work on http://example.com

mkdir -pv $(brew --prefix)/etc/ && \
echo 'address=/.build/127.0.0.1' > $(brew --prefix)/etc/dnsmasq.conf && \
sudo cp -v $(brew --prefix dnsmasq)/homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons && \
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq.plist && \
sudo mkdir -v /etc/resolver && \
sudo zsh -c 'echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1" > /etc/resolver/build'

#flush cache
sudo discoveryutil mdnsflushcache && scutil --dns

####Enable virtual hosts

This will allow you to serve folders under ~/Sites/ as websites.

  • ~/Sites
    • example.com
      • htdocs
        • index.html

to access this site, visit http://example.com.build

####Match production server paths

sudo mkdir -p /var/ && sudo ln -s ~/Sites /var/www

aww yeah

@abecko @jasonsworld Might be too little, too late, but found a solution to the

warning: pear/PEAR requires package "pear/Archive_Tar"

problem. Seems to have gotten things installed satisfactorily.

sudo php /usr/lib/php/install-pear-nozlib.phar -d /usr/local/lib/php -b /usr/local/bin

here

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32893056/installing-pecl-and-pear-on-os-x-10-11-el-capitan-or-macos-10-12-sierra

if nothing else, maybe it'll help someone else who comes bumbling around these parts. :P

It's not that the defaults write command fails. I verified the file, and it wrote the variable to it.
The problem is somewhere in the design. Maybe they have moved it?
I have been looking in the containers and other files but no luck yet.

I hope they didn't completely kill it.
Maybe there is a way to copy the old Yosemite version of QL back?
If I figure it out, I will update here.
