--host ,--port and others are not working

You know - there was a nice bit of instruction in the template that basically asked for details - well, we really need those details to help you. :)

I use --port all of the time and it works fine for me. To be honest I haven't tried --host recently.

What were you trying (exactly), what happened, etc. What PHP version, OS, etc.

I just ran some tests and they all work for me on Mac OSX, running PHP 7.2.

• modified /etc/hosts and added 127.0.0.1 example.local
• ran php spark serve --host example.local
• visited web page. It worked as expected.
• ran php spark serve --port 8083
• visited localhost:8083. It worked as expected

I did not try the PHP version because I'm lazy and didn't feel like tracking down a path. :) However, these are all just passing variables to PHP's built in web server, so I would expect it to work.

don't include the equal sign "=" (--port=8081) as the manual says. Use --port 8081
