Including static files

Dash Python
10

Dash now follows Flask in providing a static_folder default of static which means it’s enough to create your Dash instance and then create a static folder in the same directory as your Dash app and it should just work out of the box:

The problem of the solution is it serves assets as “www.example.com/static/ads.txt”.
I needed to serve my file on root as “www.example.com/ads.txt”

So I copied code from Allowing users to download CSV on click - #3 by scottschmidt

import flask

@app.server.route("/ads.txt")
def serve_static():
    return flask.send_file("./static/ads.txt", mimetype="text")

Looks this is working …
