This code is mention in your Doc file.
Que 1: What is server[path] ? Means Path = ??? in place of path what path i will provide?
Que 2: After loading Html file in using HttpHandlers.directory(NSBundle.mainBundle().resourcePath! + "/www")
how i will display in our WKWebView or SFSafariVC ? what will be url for that?
Uhmm 🤔 I think we need to add more docs to the repository to explain the different uses of the library. I'm going to create a new issue to keep track of missing docs.
For now @anupgupta-arg I'm going to explain to you each one of your cases in the best I can for now 😀:
What is
server[path]?
In the example of the README is where you define your routes for example:
server["/hello"] = { request in
return HttpResponse.ok(.text("<html string>"))
}
By default, the server is going to run in localhost:8080 or any other port you specify when you started it. So the above definition of the route hello means when you post localhost:8080/hello in any browser including your Safari in your Mac or Simulator the response would be the specified in this case the <html string>.
After loading the HTML file using
HttpHandlers.directory(NSBundle.mainBundle().resourcePath! + "/www")how I will display in ourWKWebVieworSFSafariVC
So let's say you want to display some HTML file as the response for a specific request and for the sake of simplicity let's use the same route as before /hello. So we want the server emits the HTML file we load from the Bundle so something like this would work:
server["/hello"] = { request in
let stringFile = // load your file here as a String file
return HttpResponse.ok(.text(stringFile))
}
But we have some public functions to handle some cases too:

A very good file with examples can be found in the https://github.com/httpswift/swifter/blob/stable/Sources/DemoServer.swift
I hope this can help you!
