Defined in:

Overview

This middleware returns a file’s contents from disk in the body response. When initialized, it can accept optional HTTP headers, which will be set when a response containing a file’s contents is delivered.

This middleware will render the file specified in ‘env` where the base path is in the root directory. For example, if the root is set to `public/`, then a request with `env` of `assets/application.js` will return a response with the contents of a file located at `public/assets/application.js` if the file exists. If the file does not exist, a 404 “File not Found” response will be returned.

def call(env)
  serve(Rack::Request.new(env))
end

#match?(path) ⇒ Boolean

Takes a path to a file. If the file is found, has valid encoding, and has correct read permissions, the return value is a URI-escaped string representing the filename. Otherwise, false is returned.

Used by the ‘Static` class to check the existence of a valid file in the server’s ‘public/` directory (see Static#call).

Returns:

  • (Boolean)
