How do i use Hypnotoad as a http server

I am trying to use hypnotoad server to serve some static html pages. What configuration do i need to do or where shall i keep my static html files for hypnotoad to pick them.

Thanks!!

Solution

IIRC the servers provided by Mojolicious, of which Hypnotoad is one, serve static HTML from a folder named public. All you should need is the most basic of applications to start the server. I this should be enough for simple use,

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use Mojolicious::Lite;

# needed to setup the usual index.html landing
any '/' => sub {
  shift->render_static('index.html');
};

app->start;

and run with hypnotoad myapp.pl (assuming this script is saved as myapp.pl and is in the same location as the public folder).
