By default, it enforces canonical URIs; meaning HTTP redirects will be issued for requests to directories that do not end with a trailing slash (to add it) or requests to files that have a trailing slash (to remove it). Redirects are not issued, however, if an internal rewrite modifies the last element of the path (the filename).
Most often, the `file_server` directive is paired with the [`root`](/docs/caddyfile/directives/root) directive to set file root for the whole site. A site root does not carry sandbox guarantees: the file server does prevent directory traversal, but symbolic links within the root can still allow accesses outside of the root.
Most often, the `file_server` directive is paired with the [`root`](/docs/caddyfile/directives/root) directive to set the file root for the whole site, but this directive also has a `root` subdirective (below) to set the root only for this handler if preferred. Note that a site root does not carry sandbox guarantees: the file server does prevent directory traversal from path components, but symbolic links within the root can still allow accesses outside of the root.

```
- **browse** enables file listings for requests to directories that do not have an index file.
- **fs** specifies an alternate (perhaps virtual) file system to use. Any Caddy module in the `caddy.fs` namespace can be used here as long as it supports [`Stat()` calls](https://pkg.go.dev/io/fs#StatFS). Any root path/prefix will still apply to alternate file system modules. By default, the local disk is used.
- **root** sets the path to the site root. It's similar to the [`root`](/docs/caddyfile/directives/root) directive except it applies to this file server instance only and overrides any other site root that may have been defined. Default: `{http.vars.root}` or the current working directory. Note: This subdirective only changes the root for this directive. For other directives (like [`try_files`](/docs/caddyfile/directives/try_files) or [`templates`](/docs/caddyfile/directives/templates)) to know the same site root, use the [`root`](/docs/caddyfile/directives/root) directive, not this subdirective.

- **hide** is a list of files or folders to hide; if requested, the file server will pretend they do not exist. Accepts placeholders and glob patterns. Note that these are _file system_ paths, NOT request paths. In other words, relative paths use the current working directory as a base, NOT the site root; and all paths are transformed to their absolute form before comparisons (if possible). Specifying a file name or pattern without a path separator will hide all files with a matching name regardless of its location; otherwise, a path prefix match will be attempted, and then a globular match. Since this is a Caddyfile config, the active configuration file(s) will be added by default.
- **index** is a list of filenames to look for as index files. Default: `index.html index.txt`
- **<template_file>** is an optional custom template file to use for directory listings. Defaults to the template that can be found [here in the source code ![external link](/resources/images/external-link.svg)](https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/blob/master/modules/caddyhttp/fileserver/browse.html). Browse templates can use actions from [the standard templates module](/docs/modules/http.handlers.templates#docs) as well.
