How to allow access outside localhost

How can I allow access outside the localhost at Angular2? I can navigate at localhost:3030/panel easily but I can not navigate when I write my IP such as 10.123.14.12:3030/panel/.

Could you please allow me how to fix it? I am not using npm (node project manage - node install/node start ) to install and run the project.

If you want, I can provide my package.json and index.html.


Using ng serve --host 0.0.0.0 will allow you to connect to the ng serve using your ip instead of localhost.

EDIT

In newer versions of the cli, you have to provide your local ip address instead

EDIT 2

In newer versions of the cli (I think v5 and up) you can use 0.0.0.0 as the ip again to host it for anyone on your network to talk to.

As a side note Make sure your connection is set to Public in your OS settings.


Mac users:

  1. Go to System Preferences -> Network -> Wi-Fi
  2. Copy the IP address below Status (Usually 192.168.1.x)
  3. Paste it in your ng serve like: ng serve --host 192.168.1.x

Then you must be able to see your page on other devices through 192.168.1.x:4200.


run command

ng serve --host=0.0.0.0 --disable-host-check

this will disable host check and allow to access from outside(instead of localhost) with IP address


You can use the following command to access with your ip.

ng serve --host 0.0.0.0 --disable-host-check

If you are using npm and want to avoid running the command every time, we can add the following line to the package.json file in the scripts section.

"scripts": {
    ...
    "start": "ng serve --host 0.0.0.0 --disable-host-check"
    ...
}

Then you can run you app using the below command to be accessed from the other system in the same network.

npm start

I just edit angular.json file in my project as below and it works

...

    "serve": {
    "builder": "@angular-devkit/build-angular:dev-server",
    "options": {
      "browserTarget": "project:build",
      "host": "0.0.0.0"
    },
...
