Static Files

​

Description

This example has one route at / where the homepage is served and shows you how you can serve HTML or other types of files with Actix Web.

Note that build assets are declared in Shuttle.toml.

You can clone the example below by running the following (you’ll need shuttle CLI installed):

shuttle init --from shuttle-hq/shuttle-examples --subfolder axum/static-files

​

Code

use axum::{routing::get, Router};
use tower_http::services::ServeDir;

async fn hello_world() -> &'static str {
    "Hello, world!"
}

#[shuttle_runtime::main]
async fn main() -> shuttle_axum::ShuttleAxum {
    let router = Router::new()
        .route("/", get(hello_world))
        .nest_service("/assets", ServeDir::new("assets"));

    Ok(router.into())
}

​

Usage

After you clone the example, launch it locally by using shuttle run then visit the home route at http://localhost:8000 - you should see a homepage that shows our included HTML file.

You can extend this example by adding more routes that serve other files.
