Start

Bifrost should be installed both on remote server and the local system.

$ npm i -g @lvchengbin/bifrost

On the remote server, a bifrost server can be started with running:

$ bifrost server start --port=3100

By running the cmd above, bifrost would try looking for the ~/.bifrost.js file, and if --port is specfied, it will overwrite the port written in ~/.bifrost.js. For more information about the .bifrost.js, see .bifrost.js
