Ok so I need resource("/{...}", "static/index.html").
My problem was that I was trying to use resource("*", "static/index.html") or resource("/*", "static/index.html"), but it doesn't work as /* matches /a but not /a/b. Something like /** would make much more sense than /{...} imho

[orangy]

{...} is a shortcut for {param...} (like varargs) when you want to capture values for the matched path parts. ** could be an alias indeed, but is it more discoverable?

[ribesg]

Well, when I realized what * actually did, I immediately tried **. I don't know why it feels natural to me.

[ribesg]

But yeah I understand where {...} comes from

@orangy it would be more discoverable, yes. I remember trying that myself before diving into the docs to recall /{...}.

Looks good, can you create an issue please?

Done, thanks for considering this! https://github.com/ktorio/ktor/issues/338
