Class: Rack::Static

Relationships & Source Files
Inherits: Object
Defined in: lib/rack/static.rb

Overview

The Static middleware intercepts requests for static files (javascript files, images, stylesheets, etc) based on the url prefixes or route mappings passed in the options, and serves them using a Files object. This allows a ::Rack stack to serve both static and dynamic content.

Examples:

Serve all requests beginning with /media from the “media” folder located in the current directory (ie media/*):

use Rack::Static, :urls => ["/media"]

Same as previous, but instead of returning 404 for missing files under /media, call the next middleware:

use Rack::Static, :urls => ["/media"], :cascade => true

Serve all requests beginning with /css or /images from the folder “public” in the current directory (ie public/css/* and public/images/*):

use Rack::Static, :urls => ["/css", "/images"], :root => "public"

Serve all requests to / with “index.html” from the folder “public” in the current directory (ie public/index.html):

use Rack::Static, :urls => {"/" => 'index.html'}, :root => 'public'

Serve all requests normally from the folder “public” in the current directory but uses index.html as default route for “/”

use Rack::Static, :urls => [""], :root => 'public', :index =>
'index.html'

Set custom HTTP Headers for based on rules:

   use Rack::Static, :root => 'public',
       :header_rules => [
         [rule, {header_field => content, header_field => content}],
         [rule, {header_field => content}]
       ]

Rules for selecting files:

1) All files
   Provide the :all symbol
   :all => Matches every file

2) Folders
   Provide the folder path as a string
   '/folder' or '/folder/subfolder' => Matches files in a certain folder

3) File Extensions
   Provide the file extensions as an array
   ['css', 'js'] or %w(css js) => Matches files ending in .css or .js

4) Regular Expressions / Regexp
   Provide a regular expression
   %r{\.(?:css|js)\z} => Matches files ending in .css or .js
   /\.(?:eot|ttf|otf|woff2|woff|svg)\z/ => Matches files ending in
     the most common web font formats (.eot, .ttf, .otf, .woff2, .woff, .svg)
     Note: This Regexp is available as a shortcut, using the :fonts rule

5) Font Shortcut
   Provide the :fonts symbol
   :fonts => Uses the Regexp rule stated right above to match all common web font endings

Rule Ordering:
  Rules are applied in the order that they are provided.
  List rather general rules above special ones.

Complete example use case including HTTP header rules:

   use Rack::Static, :root => 'public',
       :header_rules => [
         # Cache all static files in public caches (e.g. Rack::Cache)
         #  as well as in the browser
         [:all, {'cache-control' => 'public, max-age=31536000'}],

         # Provide web fonts with cross-origin access-control-headers
         #  Firefox requires this when serving assets using a Content Delivery Network
         [:fonts, {'access-control-allow-origin' => '*'}]
       ]
