How to change angular port from 4200 to any other

Question

I want to use 5000 instead of 4200.

I have tried to create a file on root name ember-cli and put JSON according to the code below:

{
   &q         


        

Answer 1

The location for port settings has changed a couple of times.

If using Angular CLI 1

Change angular-cli.json

{
  "defaults": {
    "serve": {
      "host": "0.0.0.0",
      "port": 5000 
    }
  }
}

If using the latest Angular CLI

Change angular.json

"projects": {
    "project-name": {
        ...
        "architect": {
            "serve": {
                "options": {
                  "host": "0.0.0.0",
                  "port": 5000
                }
            }
        }
        ...
    }
}

Without changing any file

Run the command

ng serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 5000
