angel_static

Static server middleware for Angel.

Installation

In pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
    angel_framework: ^1.0.0-dev
    angel_static: ^1.1.0-dev

Usage

To serve files from a directory, your app needs to have a VirtualDirectory mounted on it.

import 'dart:io';
import 'package:angel_framework/angel_framework.dart';
import 'package:angel_static/angel_static.dart';

main() async {
  final app = new Angel();
  await app.configure(new VirtualDirectory(source: new Directory('./public')));
  await app.startServer();
}

Options

The VirtualDirectory API accepts a few named parameters:

• source: A Directory containing the files to be served. If left null, then Angel will serve either from web (in development) or build/web (in production), depending on your ANGEL_ENV.
• indexFileNames: A List<String> of filenames that should be served as index pages. Default is ['index.html'].
• publicPath: To serve index files, you need to specify the virtual path under which angel_static is serving your files. If you are not serving static files at the site root, please include this.
• debug: Print verbose debug output.
