serve output

[a-b-r-o-w-n]

Is there a reason that esbuild.serve does not expose the outfile and instead serves the entrypoints?

For example, the following configuration will serve client.js at localhost:8000 but not app.js:

esbuild.serve({}, {
  entryPoints: ['client.tsx'],
  bundle: true,
  outfile: 'app.js'
})

Thanks for reporting this issue. It looks like the serve API currently ignores the outfile setting. You're right that it shouldn't ignore it, so this is a bug that should be fixed.
