At WWDC21 Apple introduced DocC, a tool for creating archives of Swift documentation that includes the static files required to host a version of the documentation on a website.

In this post I will summarise various methods of serving a DocC archive:

• Netlify
• Vapor middleware
• nginx
• Apache

All the examples provided here are hosting the DocC archive for VaporDocC, the Vapor middleware I wrote for hosting DocC archives.

• Support redirecting requests for the root (“/“)
• Support redirecting requests with missing trailing slashes to include trailing slashes
