Http-server: Forgot to release new version?

[franciscop]

I see in https://github.com/indexzero/http-server/issues/56 that the --gzip feature was added (thanks), and it's also in the readme.md. However it doesn't seem to be in any release yet.

So could you please release http-server 0.10.0 with this feature? I would do it myself but I cannot npm publish anything. Thank you

How can they state "It is powerful enough for production usage" when gzip isn't supported?

[StevenSchrembeck]

Please release v 0.10.0

[franciscop]

I think this repo is unmaintained...

[derhuerst]

Not entirely, but there's not a lot of work being done. Will think about offering to maintain it.

[franciscop]

@derhuerst well we'd need @indexzero input for this issue anyway since indexzero's the only collaborator in npm

I'm collecting a couple of key things folks want for a v0.10.0 release (see the v0.10.0 related milestone). If you're still here (and I hope you are!), tests and such are most welcome!

[StevenSchrembeck]

Thanks @BigBlueHat ! This is one of my favorite npm packages. It was my first "whoa" moment with node/npm, coming from a Java environment where it takes 2 weeks to spin up a server.

Hey @BigBlueHat why not splitting it into two releases? 0.10.0 with gzip, which is already in the code and 0.11.0 for new features yet-to-be-implemented. In this way we can instantly benefit from this and then benefit again when the 0.11.0 is released. GZIP support was added almost 1 year ago while the corresponding version hasn't been released yet and it seems quite a few people would be happy with it from the :+1: I see.

[BigBlueHat]

Yeah. Good call. I'll toss another milestone up and move everything else over to that one.

Stay tuned! 😁
