#Static Resources Module

Introduction

The idea behind this module is to provide an easy way to host static resources.

FAQ

Why not using HTTP Transport static-resource-handler?

• I want to host resources that are packaged inside jar files.
• I don't want to polute a REST API with a docroot and files that will hardcode UI with Backend
• I want a way to show that certain resources should be static: GAE has a way of doing this as can been here:

handlers:
- url: /stylesheets
static_dir: stylesheets

in a near future it will be great that CloudHub detects the static files and host them separately (maybe upload the to S3 / CloudFront).

I have some XYZ requirement different than yours, can I contribute or add something to it?

Yes, please! Add a pull request and we can go over it.

Usage

Add the following requirement to your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.mule.modules</groupId>
    <artifactId>mule-module-static-resources</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

Add the following snippet inside your mule-config.xml:

<static-resources:serve basePackage="com/example/my/resource/path" defaultResource="hello.html" />

That will expose the contents of the resources stored in package com.example.my.resource.path. In case the user tries to access the root of the path, or the resource identified with / then the resource it should display is hello.html.
