Neutralino crashed each time if try to load a script outside of /assets

[PhieF]

Hi !

First, thanks for your work

Expected Behavior

<script src="/libs/jquery.min.js"></script>

should load javascript file ?

Actual Behavior
Neutralino crashed each time if try to load a script outside of /assets

<script src="/libs/jquery.min.js"></script>

will crash (core dumped)
but

<script src="/assets/jquery.min.js"></script>

seems to work

Specifications

• NeutralinoJs Version: 1.4.0
• NeutralinoJs CLI version: ?
• Platform: Ubuntu 20.04

This is expected behavior, as you can see in Neutralino's router:

neutralinojs/core-windows/src/router.cpp

Lines 87 to 99 in 1c220d0

	bool isAsset = path.find("/assets") != string::npos;
	if(path == "/" + appname ){
	return make_pair(settings::getFileContent("app\\index.html"), "text/html");
	}
	else if(path == "/neutralino.js"){
	return make_pair(settings::getGlobalVars() + routes::getClientJs(), "text/javascript");
	}
	else if(path == "/settings.json"){
	return make_pair(settings::getSettings().dump(), "application/json");
	}
	else if(isAsset && regex_match(path, regex(".*\\.(js|html|css)$"))) {
	return getAsset(path);
	}

Any request path that does not start with /assets and does not fulfill any other route typology will break. The documentation says to put any asset in that assets directory. But nothing prevents you from creating a libs folder inside of assets.

Hey.. usually neutralino needs to see all of the app resources in assets. But regarding crashing. need to apply a fix. :) Thanks @blex41 for the reply.

Hey.. now the project structure is flexible and it's like any other static file server: https://neutralino.js.org/docs/developer-environment/project-structure
