NAME

Catalyst::Plugin::Static - DEPRECATED - Serve static files with Catalyst

SYNOPSIS

use Catalyst 'Static';

# let File::MMagic determine the content type
$c->serve_static;

# or specify explicitly if you know better
$c->serve_static('text/css');

DESCRIPTION

Serve static files from config->{root}. You probably want to use use Catalyst::Plugin::Static::Simple rather than this module.

METHODS

finalize

This plugin overrides finalize to make sure content is removed on redirect.

serve_static

Call this method from your action to serve requested path as a static file from your root. takes an optional content_type parameter

serve_static_file <file>

Serve a specified static file.

SEE ALSO

Catalyst.

CAVEATS

This module is not as optimized for static files as a normal web server, and is most useful for stand alone operation and development.
