Serve static files using Bun.serve
or Bao.js.
Currently in beta. Aiming for similar features as expressjs/serve-static
.
This is a Bun module available through the npm registry. Installation is done using the bun install
command:
bun install serve-static-bun
import serveStatic from "serve-static-bun";
serveStatic(root, options)
Create a new middleware function to serve files from within a given root directory. The file to serve will be determined by combining req.url
with the provided root directory.
When a file is not found, it will send a 404 response. If a directory is accessed, but no index file is found, a 403 response will be sent.
When used in middleware mode, the 404 and 403 responses will not be sent and will instead return the context to Bao.js, so that other routes can continue.
By default, slashes are automatically collapsed in the path, and a trailing slash is added when the path is a directory. For example, if you have blog/example/index.html
and access https://example.com//blog///example
, it will redirect to https://example.com/blog/example/
.
index
By default this module will send "index.html" files in response to a request on a directory. To disable this, set it to null
. To supply a new index, pass a string.
dirTrailingSlash
Redirect to trailing "/" when the pathname is a dir. Defaults to true
.
collapseSlashes
Collapse all slashes in the pathname (//blog///test
=> /blog/test
). Defaults to true
.
stripFromPathname
Removes the first occurence of the specified string from the pathname. Is not defined by default (no stripping).
headers
Headers to add to the response. The "Content-Type" header cannot be overwritten. If you want to change the charset, use the charset
option. If collapseSlashes
or dirTrailingSlash
is set, a "Location" header will be set if the pathname needs to be changed.
dotfiles
This option allows you to configure how the module handles dotfiles, i.e. files or directories that begin with a dot ("."). Dotfiles return a 403 by default (when this is set to "deny"), but this can be changed with this option.
defaultMimeType
The default mime type to send in the "Content-Type" HTTP header, when the file's cannot be determined. Defaults to text/plain
.
charset
The "Content-Type" HTTP header charset parameter. Defaults to utf-8
.
middlewareMode
When set to "bao"
, it will return a Bao.js compatible handler function instead.
handleErrors
If set to false
, in the case of a 403 or 404 response, the unmodified context will be returned to Bao.js. This allows you to handle the error yourself.
If set to true
, the error response will be sent to the client, without continuing the middleware chain.
Defaults to false
.
Bun.serve
import serveStatic from "serve-static-bun";
Bun.serve({ fetch: serveStatic("public") });
import Bao from "baojs";
import serveStatic from "serve-static-bun";
const app = new Bao();
// *any can be anything
// We need to strip /assets from the pathname, because when the root gets combined with the pathname,
// it results in /assets/assets/file.js.
app.get(
"/assets/*any",
serveStatic("assets", { middlewareMode: "bao", stripFromPathname: "/assets" }),
);
app.get("/", (ctx) => ctx.sendText("Hello Bao!"));
app.listen();
All paths will be handled by serve-static-bun
.
import Bao from "baojs";
import serveStatic from "serve-static-bun";
const app = new Bao();
// *any can be anything
app.get("/*any", serveStatic("web", { middlewareMode: "bao" }));
app.listen();
