# Static Fileserver Middleware
Serve static files from any route and any folder, like a window into an underlying filesystem.
## Installation
```
yarn install static-fileserver-middleware
```
## Usage
Example app:
```
var static = require('static-fileserver-middleware');
var app = require('express')();
app.get('/', (r, res) => res.send('Files'));
app.use(static({ rootDir: './public' }));
app.listen(3000);
```
Example with different baseUrl:
```
var static = require('static-fileserver-middleware');
var app = require('express')();
var baseUrl = '/ok'
app.get('/', (r, res) => res.send('Files'));
app.use(baseUrl, static({ baseUrl, rootDir: './public' }));
app.listen(3000);
```
### Options
|Option|Type|
|-|-|
|baseUrl|`String`|
|rootDir|`String`|
# Justification
The reasoning for making a new library for this was because none of the other
ones worked when mounted not at the root.
