How to build a site and run on live server with Angular cli

I have Angular 2 SPA site. I want to run e2e tests in the Teamcity. I want to know how to build and run the the site on live server without a watch. ng serve builds, runs and watch the live site which causes issues in the Teamcity (console remains open)

I would like to run it in localhost as ng serve command does without watch option

With angular-cli:

ng build -p

will build your app for production.

ng build -p --aot

will build your app for production and use the Ahead Of Time compiler for a lighter app.

Within your terminal, cd into your Angular 2 project folder. Run ng build --prod to compile your sources. This command will generate a dist directory within your project's root directory, this is the only folder that you will need to have your Angular 2 project running in production. If you are using NGINX, you can set-up a domain to point to this directory and have the index.html file as it's index. You will also need to redirect all sub-URLs to the index.html as Angular 2 will handle the 404s. Similar concept if you are using Apache.

ng build --prod will build and bundle everything into the dist-folder.

You can host that content on any webserver.
