# ktor

Is it possible to configure ktor to automatically insert a trailing slash for requests on static directories? I got

static("ui") {
            resources("swagger-ui")
            resource("api.json")
            defaultResource("swagger-ui/index.html")
        }

and when I browse the server at server/path/to/ui I actually see that index.html file (direct 200, no reidrects) but I see none of the static resources the index.html tries to load (it addresses them like ./resource). Those static resources load just fine if I navigate to server/path/to/ui/ (notice the trailing slash).

I'm not sure what your really asking, it sounds like the wrong question though honestly. I've been just learning this last night actually, figured it out, I suspect thge screenshot should clarify for you and this is how you use it with HTML DSL:

head {
        title { +"Async World" }
        script {
            attributes["type"]=ScriptType.textJavaScript
            attributes["src"]="resource/three.min.js"
        }
    }

That's what my last post was about, lol. If there is a better way let me know!

Yeah, so the index.html provided by swagger-ui tries to read images, js and css files by adressing them like img src="./picture.png" . Because ktor doesn't issue the redirect from /path/to/ui towards /path/to/ui/, the browser ends up trying to load /path/to/picture.png instead of /path/to/ui/picture.png.

never tried swagger sorry homie

It's not a swagger issue, it's an issue of ktor not sending the 301 permanently moved for folder towards folder/.

We've updated the links in index.html to server absolute instead of relative (eg /swagger-ui/picture.png instead of ./picture.png) to make this work

That's fair and I'm doing it as well now. Just wondering whether it's achievable from ktor. nginx does it by default for example (forcing the 301 redirect towards url + '/').
