Node.js http-server custom error message

Question

I started a node.js http-server - " https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server " If i type a non existed file in the directory, than I get the browser msg:

This localhost page can’t be found

No webpage was found for the web address: http://localhost:8080/foo
Search Google for localhost 8080 foo
HTTP ERROR 404

My question: Can I customise this error msg somehow?

Answer 1

Create 404.html file in your public directory and put content you want to be shown to that file

Example

Command line

# http-server ./public/

Content of ./public/404.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>404</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>My custom 404 message</p>
</body>
</html>
