Configure File

The default configure file at bin/etc/lgx/conf.json

If you wanna change default page, you need to change the configure file, default configure file content as follows:

{
    "port" : 80,
    "number_of_thread": 4,
    "root_path" : "/var/www",
    "web_page" : "index.html",
    "web_404_page" : "404.html",
    "log_path" : "/var/log/lgx.log",
    "firewall" : {
    }
}

port: server listen port

number_of_thread: your server will run with how many threads, default with 4

log_path: the path of print server log

root_path: the root path of access web

web_page: default access web page file

web_404_page: not found web page file

log_path: the path of log file

firewall: forbid specific client to access server, for example:

"firewall" : {
	"1", "10.1.1.1",
	"2", "101.2.4.5"
 }

It means to forbid client with ip address as "10.1.1.1" or "101.2.4.5" to access server

If you configured the file,you can restart server directly, not to recomplie the server again!
