.. _-getFromFile-:
getFromFile
===========
Completes GET requests with the content of the given file.
Signature
---------
.. includecode2:: /../../akka-http/src/main/scala/akka/http/server/directives/FileAndResourceDirectives.scala
:snippet: getFromFile
Description
-----------
The actual I/O operation is running detached in a `Future`, so it doesn't block the current thread (but potentially
some other thread !). If the file cannot be found or read the request is rejected.
To serve files from a directory use ``getFromDirectory``, instead. To serve a file from a classpath resource
use ``getFromResource`` instead.
Note that it's not required to wrap this directive with ``get`` as this directive will only respond to ``GET`` requests.
