API

func SpaHandler(publicDir string, indexFile string) http.Handler

Returns a request handler (http.Handler) that serves a single page application from a given directory (publicDir).

It falls back to a supplied index (indexFile) when either condition is true:

1. Request (file) path is not found
2. Request path is a directory

Examples

Serve only a single page application:

package main
import "net/http"
import spa "github.com/roberthodgen/spa-server"

func main() {
    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", spa.SpaHandler("public", "index.html"))
}

Serve a single page application along side other paths:

package main
import "net/http"
import spa "github.com/roberthodgen/spa-server"

func main() {
    http.Handle("/app", spa.SpaHandler("webapp", "app.html"))
    // other handlers
    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}
