I am currently developing a Rack-based application and want to redirect all file requests (e.g. filename.filetype
) to a specified folder.
Rack::Static
only supports file requests for a special folder(e.g. "/media").
Do I have to write my own Rack middleware or does an out-of-the-box solution exist?
To serve static files for Go 1.12+ in the standard environment, you define the handlers in your app. yaml file using either the static_dir or static_files elements. The content in the static files or static directories are unaffected by the scaling settings in your app.
To redirect every request to a particular path, use Rack::File
(for some reason this class is absent in recent documentation, but it is still part of the latest Rack):
run Rack::File.new("/my/path")
To redirect every request, and add an HTML index of all files in the target dir, use Rack::Directory
:
run Rack::Directory.new("/my/path")
To combine several directories or serve only a some requests from the target dir:
map "/url/prefix" do run Rack::File.new("/my/path") end # More calls to map if necessary... # All other requests. run MyApp.new
