I am using OSX. I have set up my endpoints in my development server. When I visit localhost:8080/_ah/api/explorer
, I receive this error message:
The API you are exploring is hosted over HTTP, which can cause problems. Learn how to use Explorer with a local HTTP API.
The link instructs me to start a Chrome session with special flags as follows:
[path-to-Chrome] --user-data-dir=test --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://localhost:port
I am confused about where to input this line? I assumed that it should be entered into the CLI, so I tried it on the terminal:
$ /Applications/GoogleChrome.app --user-data-dir=test --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://localhost:8080
Of course, the response is this:
$ -bash: GoogleChrome.app: command not found
After some research, I found that I can launch a Chrome session using the $ google-chrome
command, but this also failed with -bash: google-chrome: command not found
.
I also tried to locate Chrome using $ whereis google-chrome
, but this returns no response.
Try this: open /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app --args --user-data-dir=test --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://localhost:8080
