In my current web application, I am utilizing the ui-router to manage routing. Within one of my views, there is a canvas that interacts with a third-party library which dynamically loads images through HTTP GET requests. However, due to ui.router's $urlRouterProvider handling the routing, all image requests are returning a 404 error.
What is the standard practice for addressing this issue in an AngularJS application? Is there a method to exclude specific routes?
The configuration of my routes is as follows:
app.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
//
// For any unmatched url, redirect to /state1
$urlRouterProvider.otherwise("/");
//
// Now set up the states
$stateProvider
.state('main', {
url: "/",
templateUrl: "partials/main.html"
})
.state('login', {
url: "/login",
controller: 'LoginCtrl',
templateUrl: "partials/login.html"
})
.state('signup', {
url: '/signup',
controller: 'SignupCtrl',
templateUrl: 'partials/signup.html'
})
});
I am seeking a solution to bypass routes that match '/assets/*' and allow those requests to directly reach the server without interference.
