If I want to set up the directory .../whatever/stuff
to be served statically, but referenced as http://example.com/mystuff
, I tried doing this:
app.configure(function() {
app.use('/mystuff', _express.static(__dirname + "/whatever/stuff"));
app.use('/mystuff', _express.directory(__dirname + "/whatever/stuff"));
});
This mostly works, but if I reference a subdirectory of mystuff without a trailing slash, say http://example.com/mystuff/subdir
, it redirects to the wrong place (http://example.com/subdir/
), resulting in a 404. This is especially problematic with directory listings, since the directory middleware doesn't put a trailing slash on links to subdirectories.
Is there something I can do to get around this? (and is my syntax above correct?)
