Static file-serving for Hyper 0.14.
Documentation

:
Static file-serving for Hyper 0.14.
This library exports a high-level interface Static
for simple file-serving, and lower-level
interfaces for more control over responses.
Basic usage
The Static
type is essentially a struct containing some settings, and a serve
method to
handle the request. It follows the builder pattern, and also implements the hyper::Service
trait. It can be used as:
// Instance of `Static` containing configuration.
let static_ = hyper_staticfile_jsutf8::Static::new("my/doc/root/");
// A dummy request, but normally obtained from Hyper.
let request = http::Request::get("/foo/bar.txt")
.body(())
.unwrap();
// Serve the request. Returns a future for a `hyper::Response`.
let response_future = static_.serve(request);
Typically, you'd store the Static
instance somewhere, such as in your own hyper::Service
implementation.
Advanced usage
The Static
type is a simple wrapper for resolve
and ResponseBuilder
. You can achieve the
same by doing something similar to the following:
use std::path::Path;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
// Document root path.
let root = Path::new("my/doc/root/");
// A dummy request, but normally obtained from Hyper.
let request = http::Request::get("/foo/bar.txt")
.body(())
.unwrap();
// First, resolve the request. Returns a future for a `ResolveResult`.
let result = hyper_staticfile_jsutf8::resolve(&root, &request)
.await
.unwrap();
// Then, build a response based on the result.
// The `ResponseBuilder` is typically a short-lived, per-request instance.
let response = hyper_staticfile_jsutf8::ResponseBuilder::new()
.request(&request)
.build(result)
.unwrap();
}
The resolve
function tries to find the file in the root, and returns a future for the
ResolveResult
enum, which determines what kind of response should be sent. The
ResponseBuilder
is then used to create a default response. It holds some settings, and can be
constructed using the builder pattern.
It's useful to sit between these two steps to implement custom 404 pages, for example. Your
custom logic can override specific cases of ResolveResult
, and fall back to the default
behavior using ResponseBuilder
if necessary.
The ResponseBuilder
in turn uses FileResponseBuilder
to serve files that are found. The
FileResponseBuilder
can also be used directly if you have an existing open tokio::fs::File
and want to serve it. It takes care of basic headers, 'not modified' responses, and streaming
the file in the body.
Finally, there's FileBytesStream
, which is used by FileResponseBuilder
to stream the file.
This is a struct wrapping a tokio::fs::File
and implementing a futures::Stream
that
produces Bytes
s. It can be used for streaming a file in custom response.
