It supports HTTP/2 and TLS. This snap provides both an `h2static` command that can be run by any user, with access to the user home directory, and a system-wide daemon service. The service can be configured with the following options (via `snap set`): * `allow-outside-symlinks` allow access to symlinks whose target is outside of the `serve-path`. This is disabled by default since it might be a security issue. * `basic-auth` content of the crednetials file for Basic Authorization. Each line should contain colon-separated pair of username and SHA512 hash of the password. * `disable-h2` set to true to disable HTTP/2 support. * `disable-index` set to true to disable directory index. * `disable-lookup-with-suffix` set to true to disable disable matching files with .htm(l) suffix for paths without suffix. * `listen` the `address:port` for the service to listen on. The address can be omitted (e.g. `:8080`) to bind all addresses. If this option empty or null, the service will not be started. * `request-path-prefix` a path prefix to be stripped for the request. This is mostly useful in the case where the server is behind a reverse proxy with a prefix set. * `serve-path` the directory to serve content from. it's set to `$SNAP_COMMON` if not specified. If the `removable-media` interface is connected, paths under `/media` can also be used. * `show-dotfiles` set to true to show hidden files (starting with a dot). * `tls.cert`, `tls.key` ASCII contents of the TLS certificate and key. If both are set, HTTPS support will be enabled. ### Package name * h2static --- ### License * EUPL-1.2 --- ### Last updated * 11 January 2024 - latest/stable * 4 October 2026 - latest/edge --- ### Websites * [github.com/albertodonato/h2static](https://github.com/albertodonato/h2static "https://github.com/albertodonato/h2static") --- ### Contact * [github.com/albertodonato/h2static/issues](https://github.com/albertodonato/h2static/issues "https://github.com/albertodonato/h2static/issues") --- ### Source code * [github.com/albertodonato/h2static](https://github.com/albertodonato/h2static "https://github.com/albertodonato/h2static") --- ### Report a bug * [github.com/albertodonato/h2static/issues](https://github.com/albertodonato/h2static/issues "https://github.com/albertodonato/h2static/issues") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/h2static/opensuse#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install h2static Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed. You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor. Tumbleweed: ``` sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy ``` Leap 15.x: ``` sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy ``` If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE. With the repository added, import its GPG key: ``` sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh ``` Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository: ``` sudo zypper dup --from snappy ``` Snap can now be installed with the following: ``` sudo zypper install snapd ``` You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH. Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor ``` ### Install h2static To install h2static, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install h2static ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
