How to serve both dynamic and static pages with Dart and shelf?

Question

Using shelf_static to serve static web pages through Dart is no problem:

var staticHandler = createStatic         


        

Answer 1

You can use Cascade. It creates a chain of handlers, moving to the next one if the previous one gives a 404 or 405 response.

var staticHandler = createStaticHandler(staticPath, defaultDocument:'home.html');
var routes = new Router()
    ..get('/item/{itemid}', handleItem);

var handler = new Cascade()
    .add(staticHandler)
    .add(routes.hander)
    .handler;
io.serve(handler, 'localhost', port).then((server) {
  print('Serving at http://${server.address.host}:${server.port}');
});
