how to use multiple folder into app.UseStaticFiles in .net core?

Question

I want to get access to multiple folder locations from my web api to display image. I can't change the folder locations (depending on devices on which I don't have right to modify anything).

for one of the folders I did:

string FolderToListen = Configuration["xxx:yyy"];

app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions()
{
    FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(FolderToListen),
});

and now I would like to do:

string FolderToListen2= Configuration["xxx2:yyy2"];
app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions()
{
    FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(FolderToListen),
    FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(FolderToListen2),
});

but it doesn't work. Is there any way to pass multiple folders to UseStaticFiles ?

Answer 1

You can register UseStaticFolder twice:

app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions()
{
    FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(FolderToListen),
});

app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions()
{
    FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(FolderToListen2),
});
