Serving a SPA along side an API

[clarkmcc]

My design requirements are

• Serving a single-page-application that is embedded into the binary using rust-embed (I've followed this example) from the / path (root).
• Serve an API at the /api/v1 path.

I've tried configuring my router like this

let app = Router::new()
        .nest(
            "/api/v1",
            Router::new().nest(
                "/auth",
                Router::new().route("/login", post(auth::login)),
            ),
        )
        .route("/*rest", get(gui::static_handler));

but the /*rest route is giving me this error.

thread 'main' panicked at 'Invalid route: insertion failed due to conflict with previously registered route: /api/v1/auth/login'

Is it not possible for me to register a set of API routes and then anything that's not matched get's handled by the gui handler? The gui handler does work as expected when the API routes are disabled.

Use Router::fallback instead.
