How to use Dev URL

Intro

Developers can access the web server under development through the Dev URL. On GeekCode, define the port that listens to the inside of the workspace. GeekCode produces Dev URLs. Developers can use Dev URLs to render pages on the browser, or open up the public network for API joint debugging.

Multiple Dev URLs can be created per workspace.

In the Dev URL area, select Add Port, enter the port and name, and save it to generate the Dev URL

Q&A

How to access Dev URL using HTTP address?

The Dev URL uses the Http protocol, and now Safari and Chrome will forward the Http address to the Https path by default. Automatic forwarding needs to be turned off.

Chrome

1. Open HSTS settings in net-internals in Chrome

In a new browser tab, go to chrome://net-internals/#hsts. This is the configuration area for HSTS.

2. Delete domain security policies for the domain

Scroll down to "Delete domain security policies" and enter the root domain that's causing you issues. For example, I entered geekcode.com to prevent the domain from automatically redirecting to https.

Then, click the Delete button.

3. Still getting redirected?
