How to serve static files via Rack?
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
An update, the latest Rack implementation allows you to use Rack::Static
Example:
use Rack::Static, :urls => ["/media"]
Will serve all static resources under ./media
folder relative to config.ru
location.
