Class StaticFileServer

java.lang.Object

com.vaadin.flow.server.StaticFileServer

All Implemented Interfaces:

StaticFileHandler, Serializable

public class StaticFileServer
extends Object
implements StaticFileHandler

Handles sending of resources from the WAR root (web content) or META-INF/resources in the case that VaadinServlet is mapped using "/*".

This class is primarily meant to be used during developing time. For a production mode site you should consider serving static resources directly from the servlet (using a default servlet if such exists) or through a stand alone static file server.

IOException - if the underlying servlet container reports an exception

getStaticResource

protected URL getStaticResource(String path)

Returns a URL to the static Web resource at the given URI or null if no file found.

Returns:

the resource located at the named path to expose it via Web, or null if there is no resource at that path or it should not be exposed

Returns:

cache lifetime for the given filename in seconds

browserHasNewestVersion

Parameters:

request - The HttpServletRequest from the browser.

resourceLastModifiedTimestamp - The timestamp when the resource was last modified. -1 if the last modification time is unknown.

Returns:
