Hi Ben, Glad you enjoy setting up a restxq project, we use it as a primary driver of our Web-applications 👍
I set up a small project (in response to a related question last week), that serves static content from /webapp at „http://localhost/“ and maps all restxq endpoints to http://localhost/api => https://git.basex.io/basex-public/mailinglist-autocomplete This might be a good start for you future endeavors :-) The relevant settings are found in „.basex“ (This file defines where on disk to look for static and restxq files) and „ webapp/ WEB-INF/ web.xml“ (defines at what path static files and restxq endpoints are served by the Webserver). These options are explained here https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Options#HTTP_Services and https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Web_Application#Services You should be fine using ant 🐜 Feel free to ask for more information :-) Best Michael Von meinem iPhone gesendet >> Am 03.07.2020 um 09:19 schrieb Ben Pracht <ben.pra...@gmail.com>: > > Hi, > I'd like to serve static content in the same server as the one handling the > restxq.
