使用 Gin 从组内提供 static 文件

Question

I want to server static file by mapping /fs to filesys in the disk. I can server static file like this:

r := gin.New()
r.Use(static.Serve("/fs", static.LocalFile("./filesys", false)))

// followed by other routes definition such as R.GET()

I also want to guard access by using a authentication middleware, without affecting other routes. I imagine it's something I need to do with Gin's group like this:

r := gin.New()
g := r.Group("/fs")
{ // what is the purpose of this parenthesis BTW?
    g.Use(authMiddleWare)
    g.Use(static.Serve("/fs", static.LocalFile(fileUploadDir, false)))
}

However, I can't get it to work. It is not routed in. If I do additional g.GET afterward, the path came out to be wrong.

How to go about this?

Hi I checked this issue has been open for 3 years on git with no solution for 3 years and the static package seems not being maintained anymore

This is an alternate solution that might help you

package main

import (
    "net/http"

    "github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
)

func main() {
    r := gin.Default()
    grp := r.Group("/static")
    {
        grp.StaticFS("", http.Dir("/your_directory"))
    }
    r.Run()
}
