http.ext

ext allows your site to have clean URLs by assuming a file extension when the path of the URL does not end with one.

An extension in the URL is detected by checking the last element of the path for a dot (.).

Syntax

ext *extensions...*

• extensions… is a list of space-separated extensions (including the dot) to try. Extensions will be tried in the order listed. At least one extension is required.

Examples

Suppose you have a file called /contact.html. You could serve that file at /contact by having Caddy try .html files.

To try .html, .htm, and .php in order:

ext .html .htm .php
