Have Netlify serve out dotfiles
Netlify currently does not serve out dotfiles, for some reason.
A workaround is instead of saving dotfiles directly, save them as non-dotfiles, and use _redirects
to have request paths with dotfiles to serve out the non-dotfiles.
This is especially useful for applications that need to access a .well-known
folder.
So, let's say you had a folder that reads /v1/.well-known
. Save it instead as /v1/well-known
(note: the dot right before `well-known is missing).
Then, in your _redirects
file, you'd have the following line:
/v1/.well-known/* /v1/well-known/:splat 200!
