defmodule Plug.Static do
@moduledoc """
A plug for serving static assets.
It requires two options:
* `:at` - the request path to reach for static assets.
It must be a string.
* `:from` - the file system path to read static assets from.
It can be either: a string containing a file system path, an
atom representing the application name (where assets will
be served from `priv/static`), a tuple containing the
application name and the directory to serve assets from (besides
`priv/static`), or an MFA tuple.
The preferred form is to use `:from` with an atom or tuple, since
it will make your application independent from the starting directory.
For example, if you pass:
plug Plug.Static, from: "priv/app/path"
Plug.Static will be unable to serve assets if you build releases
or if you change the current directory. Instead do:
plug Plug.Static, from: {:app_name, "priv/app/path"}
If a static asset cannot be found, `Plug.Static` simply forwards
the connection to the rest of the pipeline.
## Cache mechanisms
`Plug.Static` uses etags for HTTP caching. This means browsers/clients
should cache assets on the first request and validate the cache on
following requests, not downloading the static asset once again if it
has not changed. The cache-control for etags is specified by the
`cache_control_for_etags` option and defaults to `"public"`.
However, `Plug.Static` also supports direct cache control by using
versioned query strings. If the request query string starts with
"?vsn=", `Plug.Static` assumes the application is versioning assets
and does not set the `ETag` header, meaning the cache behaviour will
be specified solely by the `cache_control_for_vsn_requests` config,
which defaults to `"public, max-age=31536000"`.
## Options
* `:encodings` - list of 2-ary tuples where first value is value of
the `Accept-Encoding` header and second is extension of the file to
be served if given encoding is accepted by client. Entries will be tested
in order in list, so entries higher in list will be preferred. Defaults
to: `[]`.
In addition to setting this value directly it supports 2 additional
options for compatibility reasons:
+ `:brotli` - will append `{"br", ".br"}` to the encodings list.
+ `:gzip` - will append `{"gzip", ".gz"}` to the encodings list.
Additional options will be added in the above order (Brotli takes
preference over Gzip) to reflect older behaviour which was set due
to fact that Brotli in general provides better compression ratio than
Gzip.
* `:cache_control_for_etags` - sets the cache header for requests
that use etags. Defaults to `"public"`.
* `:etag_generation` - specify a `{module, function, args}` to be used
to generate an etag. The `path` of the resource will be passed to
the function, as well as the `args`. If this option is not supplied,
etags will be generated based off of file size and modification time.
Note it is [recommended for the etag value to be quoted](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7232#section-2.3),
which Plug won't do automatically.
* `:cache_control_for_vsn_requests` - sets the cache header for
requests starting with "?vsn=" in the query string. Defaults to
`"public, max-age=31536000"`.
* `:only` - filters which requests to serve. This is useful to avoid
file system access on every request when this plug is mounted
at `"/"`. For example, if `only: ["images", "favicon.ico"]` is
specified, only files in the "images" directory and the
"favicon.ico" file will be served by `Plug.Static`.
Note that `Plug.Static` matches these filters against request
uri and not against the filesystem. When requesting
a file with name containing non-ascii or special characters,
you should use urlencoded form. For example, you should write
`only: ["file%20name"]` instead of `only: ["file name"]`.
Defaults to `nil` (no filtering).
* `:only_matching` - a relaxed version of `:only` that will
serve any request as long as one of the given values matches the
given path. For example, `only_matching: ["images", "favicon"]`
will match any request that starts at "images" or "favicon",
be it "/images/foo.png", "/images-high/foo.png", "/favicon.ico"
or "/favicon-high.ico". Such matches are useful when serving
digested files at the root. Defaults to `nil` (no filtering).
* `:headers` - other headers to be set when serving static assets. Specify either
an enum of key-value pairs or a `{module, function, args}` to return an enum. The
`conn` will be passed to the function, as well as the `args`.
* `:content_types` - custom MIME type mapping. As a map with filename as key
and content type as value. For example:
`content_types: %{"apple-app-site-association" => "application/json"}`.
## Examples
This plug can be mounted in a `Plug.Builder` pipeline as follows:
defmodule MyPlug do
use Plug.Builder
plug Plug.Static,
at: "/public",
from: :my_app,
only: ~w(images robots.txt)
plug :not_found
def not_found(conn, _) do
send_resp(conn, 404, "not found")
end
end
