$ npm install serve-static
var serveStatic = require('serve-static')
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, instead of
sending a 404 response, this module will instead call next()
to move on
to the next middleware, allowing for stacking and fall-backs.
Set how "dotfiles" are treated when encountered. A dotfile is a file
or directory that begins with a dot ("."). Note this check is done on
the path itself without checking if the path actually exists on the
disk. If root
is specified, only the dotfiles above the root are
checked (i.e. the root itself can be within a dotfile when when set
to "deny").
The default value is 'ignore'
.
'allow'
No special treatment for dotfiles.'deny'
Send a 403 for any request for a dotfile.'ignore'
Pretend like the dotfile does not exist and callnext()
.
Enable or disable etag generation, defaults to true.
By default this module will send "index.html" files in response to a request
on a directory. To disable this set false
or to supply a new index pass a
string or an array in preferred order.
Provide a max-age in milliseconds for http caching, defaults to 0. This can also be a string accepted by the ms module.
Redirect to trailing "/" when the pathname is a dir. Defaults to true
.
Function to set custom headers on response.
var finalhandler = require('finalhandler')
var http = require('http')
