Research direction

No project file or test is identified. Start with the App Engine configuration snippet in the issue and verify how the /(.+)/ static_files rule is handled; done means providing a confirmed way to serve index.html from directories, or documenting why this is not supported.

Description

Hi,

Is there a forum of some other place to ask questions like this?

First of all, drydrop is very very useful! I'm using it to migrate my static web sites to GAE and get rid of a rented dedicated server.

Second, I know this is more of a GAE question, but I thought you may have encountered it - how to make index.html the default file for all directories? I tried the following:

- url: /(.+)/
  static_files: \1/index.html
  upload: /.*

But this resulted in a syntax error. I would like if possible to avoid having to add handlers for all my directories.

Thanks a lot.
