How to access ngrest services with IP address instead of localhost

[vivek pandya]

Hi,

After building a project with ngrest I am able to access services with localhost but when I replace localhost with IP address assigned to my system it fails.
I want to access my service on a LAN network so my ngrest project should be able to be accessed with IP address assigned to my system.

Kindly provide guidance.

Sincerely,
Vivek

Hi,

By default it binds to localhost. To bind to specific address you should specify it by setting NGREST_SERVER_IP environment variable, for example:

NGREST_SERVER_IP=192.168.0.100 ngrest

Or to bind to all available interfaces, use 0.0.0.0 ip address:

NGREST_SERVER_IP=0.0.0.0 ngrest

Hi Dmitry Utkin,

Thanks for the infromation. I also find this thing after reading scripts/ngrest file. But for this kind of small things like custom port, IP it would be better if you just add note to README page.

Hi,

Actually it was intended to bind to any available interfaces by default. But after some ngrest script update it now binds to localhost. I will fix it.

Here is the ngrest script reference: https://github.com/loentar/ngrest/wiki/ngrest-script
