Wildcard route blocks static file access

[guoyunhe]

In my Adonis app, I use React as front-end framework and handling page routing at front-end. In Adonis' routes, I use:

Route.group(() => {
  // API routes...
}).prefix('/api');

// Web page routes
Route.get('*', async ({ view }) => {
  const html = await view.render('app');
  return html;
});

However, this wildcard route blocks my access to static files in /public. (node ace serve --watch) Images like /logo.svg won't load.

You miss the configuration for static assets.

Yeah, it worked. Maybe it is because I created this project with api mode and then I start to add assets stuff back...

Yup, API preset does not include handling of static assets
