Constructors
| EnableBrowsing | |
| DisableBrowsing |
Arguments
| :: (WebMonad Response m, ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) | |
| => Browsing | allow directory browsing |
| -> [FilePath] | index file names, in case the requested path is a directory |
| -> FilePath | file/directory to serve |
| -> m Response |
Serve files and directories from a directory and its subdirectories using sendFile.
Usage:
serveDirectory EnableBrowsing ["index.html"] "path/to/files/on/disk"
If the requested path does not match a file or directory on the
disk, then serveDirectory calls mzero.
If the requested path is a file then the file is served normally.
If the requested path is a directory, then the result depends on what the first two arguments to the function are.
The first argument controls whether directory browsing is enabled.
The second argument is a list of index files (such as index.html).
When a directory is requested, serveDirectory will first try to
find one of the index files (in the order they are listed). If that
fails, it will show a directory listing if EnableBrowsing is set,
otherwise it will return forbidden "Directory index forbidden".
Here is an explicit list of all the possible outcomes when the argument is a (valid) directory:
DisableBrowsing, empty index file list
This will always return, forbidden "Directory index forbidden"
DisableBrowsing, non-empty index file list
- If an index file is found it will be shown.
- Otherwise returns, forbidden "Directory index forbidden"
EnableBrowsing, empty index file list
Always shows a directory index.
EnableBrowsing, non-empty index file list
- If an index file is found it will be shown
- Otherwise shows a directory index

Arguments
| :: (ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) | |
| => (FilePath -> m String) | function for determining content-type of file. Typically |
| -> FilePath | path to the file to serve |
| -> m Response |
Serve a single, specified file. The name of the file being served is specified explicity. It is not derived automatically from the Request url.
example 1:
Serve as a specific content-type:
serveFile (asContentType "image/jpeg") "/srv/data/image.jpg"
example 2:
Serve guessing the content-type from the extension:
serveFile (guessContentTypeM mimeTypes) "/srv/data/image.jpg"
If the specified path does not exist or is not a file, this function will return mzero.
WARNING: No security checks are performed.
NOTE: alias for serveFileUsing filePathSendFile
Arguments
| :: (ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) | |
| => FilePath | directory wherein served files must be contained |
| -> (FilePath -> m String) | function for determining content-type of file. Typically |
| -> FilePath | path to the file to serve |
| -> m Response |
Like serveFile, but uses combineSafe to prevent directory
traversal attacks when the path to the file is supplied by the user.
Content-Type / Mime-Type
Ready collection of common mime types. Except for the first two entries, the mappings come from an Ubuntu 8.04 /etc/mime.types file.
returns a specific content type, completely ignoring the FilePath argument.
Use this with serveFile if you want to explicitly specify the
content-type.
see also: guessContentTypeM, serveFile
guessContentTypeM :: Monad m => MimeMap -> FilePath -> m StringSource
try to guess the content-type of a file based on its extension
defaults to application/octet-stream if no match was found.
Useful as an argument to serveFile
see also: guessContentType, serveFile
Index Files
defaultIxFiles :: [FilePath]Source
a list of common index files. Specifically: index.html, index.xml, index.gif
Typically used as an argument to serveDiretory.
Deprecated
Arguments
| :: (WebMonad Response m, ServerMonad m, FilterMonad Response m, MonadIO m, MonadPlus m) | |
| => [FilePath] | index file names, in case the requested path is a directory |
| -> FilePath | file/directory to serve |
| -> m Response |
Deprecated: use serveDirectory instead.
Serve files from a directory and its subdirectories using sendFile.
Usage:
fileServe ["index.html"] "path/to/files/on/disk"
fileServe does not support directory browsing. See serveDirectory
DEPRECATED: use serveDirectory instead.
Note:
The list of index files ["index.html"] is only used to determine what file to show if the user requests a directory. You *do not* need to explicitly list all the files you want to serve.
