pub serve to non-root directory

Issue

Is it possible to run pub serve during dev and have the application available on localhost:8888/application instead of localhost:8888 ?

I don’t see any flags that I can specify on pub itself, so was wondering if there’s some kind of transformer I can use.

Solution

I don’t think this is possible. Maybe adding a symlink

my_project/web/application

that points to

my_project/web

allows you to do what you want.

Another option is to use a proxy that forwards

http://localhost:8888/application 

to

http://localhost:8080/

Using a proxy is also the recommended solution when you need to use a 3rd-party server during development where requests for Dart resources are forwarded to pub serve and everything else to the 3rd-party server.
