Modifying manifest.webmanifest

cat

I need to add some entries on this file for my pwa

Anyone know how to do that without too much fuss and tampering nginx or webserver rules something

Oh if you don't have access then build a plugin that serves the file. You can use any url you want that way.

app.get('/some/custom/url', function (req, res) {
   res.sendFile('path/to/hello.txt');
});

You can either modify it in the source here or use the hook filter:maifest.build and modify it in a plugin.

@baris Thanks, I don't mind with the hackish way. Let say I have something like this

Filename: hello.txt
Content:

Hello World

Now I want to expose it on this URL
mysite.com/.etcs/arbitrary/path/hello.txt how do I do it?

There's file uploads on the admin panel, but it will result in something like
mysite.com/assets/uploads/.etcs/arbitrary/path/hello.txt instead of what I want.

You are better of using nginx for that kind of stuff.

@baris How would you do that when you are deploying your NodeBB on Heroku?
