Example

import vibe.http.fileserver;
import vibe.http.router;
import vibe.http.server;

void setupServer()
{
	auto router = new URLRouter;
	// add other routes here
	router.get("*", serveStaticFiles("public/"));

	auto settings = new HTTPServerSettings;
	listenHTTP(settings, router);
}

Example

This example serves all files in the "public" sub directory with an added prefix "static/" so that they don't interfere with other registered routes. 

import vibe.http.fileserver;
import vibe.http.router;
import vibe.http.server;

void setupRoutes()
{
 	auto router = new URLRouter;
	// add other routes here

	auto fsettings = new HTTPFileServerSettings;
	fsettings.serverPathPrefix = "/static";
	router.get("/static/*", serveStaticFiles("public/", fsettings));

	auto settings = new HTTPServerSettings;
	listenHTTP(settings, router);
}
