puter.hosting.create()

Will create a new subdomain that will be served by the hosting service. Optionally, you can specify a path to a directory that will be served by the subdomain.

Syntax 

puter.hosting.create(subdomain, dirPath)

Parameters

subdomain (String) (required)

A string containing the name of the subdomain you want to create.

dirPath (String) (optional)

A string containing the path to the directory you want to serve. If not specified, the subdomain will be created without a directory.

Return value

A Promise that will resolve to a subdomain object when the subdomain has been created. If a subdomain with the given name already exists, the promise will be rejected with an error. If the path does not exist, the promise will be rejected with an error.

Examples

Create a simple website displaying "Hello world!"

<html>
<body>
    <script src="https://js.puter.com/v2/"></script>
    <script>
        (async () => {
            // (1) Create a random directory
            let dirName = puter.randName();
            await puter.fs.mkdir(dirName)

            // (2) Create 'index.html' in the directory with the contents "Hello, world!"
            await puter.fs.write(`${dirName}/index.html`, '<h1>Hello, world!</h1>');

            // (3) Host the directory under a random subdomain
            let subdomain = puter.randName();
            const site = await puter.hosting.create(subdomain, dirName)

            puter.print(`Website hosted at: <a href="https://${site.subdomain}.puter.site" target="_blank">https://${site.subdomain}.puter.site</a>`);
        })();
