In combination with ExpressJS?

[binarykitchen]

Somehow this does not work for me:

gulp.task('webserver', function() {
    var webserver = require('gulp-webserver')

    gulp.src(settings.server.paths.src)
        .pipe(webserver({
            port:               settings.server.port,
            https:              true,
            livereload:         true,
            directoryListing:   false,
            open:               true
        }))
})

I get a Cannot GET /

I think my ExpressJS app isn't running at all. Do I have to start my node app in a separate task, i.E. with gulp-nodemon? Probably a lame question. Just wondering how you are doing it.

This here is my current task for nodemon and might showcase my problem a bit better:

gulp.task('run', ['default', 'watch'], function() {

    var nodemon = require('gulp-nodemon'),
        spawn   = require('child_process').spawn,
        bunyan

    nodemonInstance = nodemon({
        script: paths.server,
        ext:    'js json',
        ignore: [
            'etc/',
            'var/',
            'node_modules/',
            path.relative(process.cwd(), paths.browser)
        ],
        watch:    [paths.etc, paths.src],
        stdout:   false,
        readable: false,
        quiet:    true
    })
    .on('change', ['lint'])
    .on('readable', function() {
        // free memory
        bunyan && bunyan.kill()

        bunyan = spawn('./node_modules/bunyan/bin/bunyan', [
            '--output', 'short',
            '--color'
        ])

        bunyan.stdout.pipe(process.stdout)
        bunyan.stderr.pipe(process.stderr)

        this.stdout.pipe(bunyan.stdin)
        this.stderr.pipe(bunyan.stdin)
    })
})

If I can replace the above with gulp-webserver that would be great!

Thanks for any hints or examples.
