api.conf port (alias bind alias listen to interface)

Open Tormen opened this issue 8 years ago • 0 comments

Hi,

I asked myself this question: Can I bind ocsigen only to 127.0.0.1 somehow ? (instead of * (so all devices))

And yes you can:

<ocsigen>
   <server>
     <port>127.0.0.1:8080</port>

It was the "port" that threw me off. I think "bind" or "listen" would be better (more intuitive) tag names, to reflect the fact that you can provide a port and/or ip+port.

Also the access to the configuration seems out of sync with that: https://ocsigen.org/eliom/5.0/api/server/Eliom_config because the get_default_port returns only a int instead of a tuple (string option * int).
