Customize Server URL

Your Beefweb server may not run on 127.0.0.1 via port 8880, then you can configure the server URL in settings.

Open VS Code settings, then go to "Beefweb › Server: Url" and edit the value like this: http://example.com:1234. Please don't put the trailing / or /api to the URL.

Running on Web

This extension is supported on VS Code for Web like github.dev or vscode.dev. However, due to CORS in browsers, you must configure CORS headers on Beefweb.

You can configure Beefweb in beefweb.config.json like this:

{
  "responseHeaders": {
    "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*"
  }
}
