file_server (Caddyfile directive)

file_server

A static file server. It works by appending the request's URI path to the site's root path.

Syntax

file_server [<matcher>] [browse] {
	root   <path>
	hide   <files...>
	index  <files...>
	browse [<template_file>]
}
  • browse enables file listings for requests to directories that do not have an index file.
  • root sets the path to the site root for just this file server instance, overriding any other. Default: {http.vars.root} or the current working directory.
  • hide is a list of files to hide; if requested, the file server will pretend they do not exist. The active configuration file will be added by default.
  • <template_file> is an optional custom template file to use for directory listings.

Examples

A static file server out of the current directory:

file_server

With file listings enabled:

file_server browse

Only serve static files out of the /static folder:

file_server /static/*
