I'm working on a ASP.NET Core website (previously named ASP.NET 5 / vNext) with Angular. In order for Angular to work I need to have a catch-all route:
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseMvc(routes =>
{
// Angular fallback route
routes.MapRoute("angular", "{*url}", new { controller = "Home", action = "Index" });
});
I also have a few files/folders in wwwroot, like:
wwwroot/app
wwwroot/assets
wwwroot/lib
When any requests are made to these paths, for example http://example.com/assets/css/test.css
, and the file (test.css
) does NOT exist, it should not continue to the fallback route. It should return a 404.
Right now, if the file does not exist it returns the Angular HTML. So, how can I tell it that any path that starts with '/assets' should only be routed / served by UseStaticFiles
?
This seems to work:
app.MapWhen(
context => {
var path = context.Request.Path.Value.ToLower();
return
path.StartsWith("/assets") ||
path.StartsWith("/lib") ||
path.StartsWith("/app");
},
config => config.UseStaticFiles());
However, I'm not sure if there are any performance (or other type of) implications. I'll update if I come across any.
