Curl command:

Response:

Host an HTML Page in CM-Well¶
Beyond hosting blob files like an image, CM-Well will also serve full HTML files (in fact, the CM-Well UI is hosted under the /meta URI structure and served using this method).
This means that you can easily create additional applications that integrate with CM-Well APIs just by loading the file to CM-Well.
The most basic HTML file is, of course, hello world. Create a new file on your file system with the following text
<html> <head><title>Hello World!</title></head> <body><h3>Hello World!</body> </html>
Publish to CM-Well
curl -X POST <cm-well-host>/exercise/files/hello.html -H "X-CM-WELL-TYPE: FILE" -H "Content-Type: text/html" --data-binary @"hello.html"
Now navigate to the page in your browser:
Two more complex examples, a query builder, and a D3 integration, can be found in the examples directory.
