Hosting: Simple rewrite from "/" to subfolder

[Peter LoBue]

I would like to host multiple "apps" with firebase hosting, and be able to change which one appears for the domain's root via hosting configuration rewrites.

My hosting folder looks like this:

/public
  /app1
    index.html
  /app2
    index.html
  404.html
firebase.json

firebase.json contents:

{
  "hosting": {
    "public": "public",
    "rewrites": [
      { "source": "/", "destination": "/app1" }
    ]
  }
}

Expected result:

I type example.com or example.com/ into my browser, and am presented with /app1/index.html

Current behavior:

I get the contents of 404.html

Thanks!

For this you should just alter public to be e.g. public/app1 for that. Rewrites are for serving a specific file for a URL pattern.

Thanks Michael, but I still want both /app1 and /app2 to remain available via the direct urls example.com/app1 and example.com/app2

Then you would want to do:

{"source":"/", "destination":"/app1/index.html"}

and you would need to make sure not to have /public/index.html (which would take priority over the rewrite).
