Question about blueprints and static routes #585
Description
I'm serving my OpenAPI specification using the Swagger UI framework. I've got everything working using the SimpleApp object. I'm reworking the code to use blueprints. I am having trouble with the server not finding files in the expected paths. When using a blueprint with no overrides, I expect to need the following directory structure:
- server.exe
- swagger/
- static/
all of the static files associated with the blueprint
- static/
- templates/
- swagger.html
The endpoint should be http://localhost:18080/swagger/. Logging (see below) shows that we find the template in the right spot (templates/) but it's looking for the static files with the /swagger/ prefix. The documentation notes that the final routes should be <bp prefix>/static/<filename>, which doesn't seem to be working as expected.
I've also reviewed #497. In my case, I just want the default behavior.
