koa-better-static2

**NOTE: This is for use with Koa 2.x.x and Nodejs 10.x.x. For Koa 1.x.x use https://github.com/ohomer/koa-better-static

This is a updated fork of koa-better-static by ohomer(https://github.com/ohomer) that uses latest Nodejs and Koajs version.

A higher performance, drop in replacement for koa-static, with a few minimal changes:

• Doesn't use koa-send, but uses an optimized version
• Supports If-Modified-Since header for cache/performance
• Removal of gzip option (which checks for .gz files)
• Removal of defer (if you want this behavior, put the middleware at the end)
• No default index file
• Requires node 8 or greater.

Installation

$ npm install koa-better-static2

API

const Koa = require('koa');
const serve = require('koa-better-static2');
const app = new Koa();
app.use(serve(root, opts));

• opts options object.
