Access static resources using HTTP POST method

[govi20]

I tried to access the static resource using HTTP POST method but it is not working. I saw a couple of related questions of StackOverflow.

Here is SO link => https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36476638/spring-boot-allowing-post-access-to-static-content

I believe there should be a way to access these resource via POST also.

Thanks for the suggestion. Support for static resource handling is provided by Spring Framework and Spring Boot just auto-configures it for you. I don't believe it's possible to configure the supported methods at the moment as Spring Framework does not provide access to the ResourceHttpRequestHandler instances that are created for each ResourceHandlerRegistration. Access to the handler is needed so that its setSupportedMethods method can be called.

If you would like to pursue this, can you please open a Spring Framework JIRA ticket and comment here with a link to it.
