Catch All Route

[sw.p...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

Is there a way to define a catch all route in Actionhero?

I'm using AngularJS as client in staticFile server and would like to send index.html file when the route match anything except the one with /api pattern.

I know how to send file from an action using server.processFile, but i don't know how to define the route as described to reach that action.

I haven’t tried it, but something like the following should work.  Be sure the set rootEndpointType to ‘api’ rather than ‘file’ :

exports.routes = {
  all: [
    { path: ‘/api/action1',     action: 'action1' },
    { path: ‘/api/action2',     action: 'action2' },
    ...
    { path: '/',                action: ‘catch_all' },
  ]
};

Unfortunately, setting a catch all route that matches ‘/‘ will ovveride the normal /api/actionName matching, and you will need to re-define them.  Use a grunt task to generate them or something to help.
