serve_static_files: Middleware to serve static files

In Bart6114/jug: A Simple Web Framework for R

Description

Binds to get requests that aren't handled by specified paths. Should support all filetypes; returns image and octet-stream types as a raw string.

Note: the path argument is not related to the file being served. If path is given, the static file middleware will bind to path, however for finding the files on the local filesystem it will strip path from the file location. For example, let's assume path='my_path', the following url /my_path/file/to/serve.html will serve the file file/to/serve.html from the root_path folder.

Usage

serve_static_files(jug, path = NULL, root_path = getwd())

Arguments

jug	the jug instance
path	the path to bind to, default = NULL (all paths)
root_path	the file path to set as root for the file server
