<h1>knife serve<a class="headerlink" href="#knife-serve" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>The <strong>knife serve</strong> subcommand is used to run a persistent chef-zero against the local chef-repo. (chef-zero is a lightweight Chef server that runs in-memory on the local machine.) This is the same as running the chef-client executable with the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--local-mode</span></tt> option. The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">chef_repo_path</span></tt> is located automatically and the Chef server will bind to the first available port between <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">8889</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">9999</span></tt>. <strong>knife serve</strong> will print the URL for the local Chef server, so that it may be added to the knife.rb file.</p>
