serve function Null safety

Future<HttpServer> serve(
  1. Handler handler,
  2. Object address,
  3. int port,
  4. {SecurityContext? securityContext,
  5. int? backlog,
  6. bool shared = false}
)

Starts an HttpServer that listens on the specified address and port and sends requests to handler.

If a securityContext is provided an HTTPS server will be started.

See the documentation for HttpServer.bind and HttpServer.bindSecure for more details on address, port, backlog, and shared.

Implementation

Future<HttpServer> serve(
  Handler handler,
  Object address,
  int port, {
  SecurityContext? securityContext,
  int? backlog,
  bool shared = false,
}) async {
  backlog ??= 0;
  var server = await (securityContext == null
      ? HttpServer.bind(address, port, backlog: backlog, shared: shared)
      : HttpServer.bindSecure(
          address,
          port,
          securityContext,
          backlog: backlog,
          shared: shared,
        ));
  serveRequests(server, handler);
  return server;
