Enhance WebController to support a web site

[shemanaev]

index.html served on all routes except /static/* and /opds/* because of Single-Page Applications (written in React, Angular, etc...) routing requirement (called "HTML5 mode" sometimes). I didn't want to build general purpose server as it'll still requires ajax calls on all pages.

However I can change logic if you really need to serve bunch of static htmls: if filename + .html exists serve it, otherwise check for index.html existence. If both failed - redirect to /opds or say "Not found".

I think (thought) that is what my code accomplished? :-) I will send you an email today with my thoughts on what my goals are for the document management problem I am solving. Your recent checkins go a long way to making this a perfect solution for me.

Well, maybe not an email 'Mailbox size limit exceeded '

Oh, I misread something, sorry. Probably the better way to handle web pages is probe `filename` + `.html`, then without `.html`, then `index.html` and response not found at last. Thus I can eliminate `/static/*` route. 2017-02-04 18:20 GMT+03:00 Gerrit Visser <[email protected]>:
