NAME
Mojolicious::Plugin::Alias - serve static files from aliased paths
SYNOPSIS
# Mojolicious
$self->plugin('alias', { '/images' => '/foo/bar/dir/images',
'/css' => '/here/docs/html/css' } );
# Mojolicious::Lite
plugin alias => { '/people/fry/photos' => '/data/foo/frang' };
# statics embedded in __DATA__
plugin alias => { '/people' => {classes => ['main']} };
# multiple paths also possible
plugin alias => { '/people/leela/photos' =>
{ paths => [
'/data/foo/zoop',
'/data/bar/public'
] } };DESCRIPTION
Mojolicious::Plugin::Alias lets you map specific routes to collections of static files. While by default a Mojolicious app will serve static files located in any directory in the app-static->paths> array, Mojolicious::Plugin::Alias will set up a seperate Mojolicious::Static object to serve files according to the specified prefix in the URL path.
When developing with the stand-alone webserver, this module allows you to mimic server paths that might be used in your templates.
CONFIGURATION
When installing the plugin, pass a reference to a hash of aliases (server paths). The keys of the hash are URL path prefixes and must start with a '/' ( leading slash). The values of the hash can be either directory paths (a single string) or hash references that will initialize Mojolicious::Static objects - they must have either paths or classes keys, with array reference values.
