# Enabling Sites

Workers Sites can be enabled by specifying a path to serve files from. You can optionally specify glob patterns to include/exclude. If you specify both include and exclude options, only include will be used and exclude will be ignored:

$ miniflare --site ./public # or -s
$ miniflare --site ./public --site-include upload_dir
$ miniflare --site ./public --site-exclude ignore_dir

# wrangler.toml
[site]
bucket = "./public"
# Below options are optional
include = ["upload_dir"]
exclude = ["ignore_dir"]

const mf = new Miniflare({
  sitePath: "./public",
  // Below options are optional
  siteInclude: ["upload_dir"],
  siteExclude: ["exclude_dir"],
});

The following worker will now serve static files from the ./public directory. Note that you'll need a build step to bundle @cloudflare/kv-asset-handler. See 🛠 Builds for more details:

import { getAssetFromKV } from "@cloudflare/kv-asset-handler";

addEventListener("fetch", (event) => {
  event.respondWith(getAssetFromKV(event));
});

# Internal Details

When you enable Workers Sites, a read-only KV namespace, bound to __STATIC_CONTENT, is created using the file system (without key sanitisation) as its storage. An empty object, {}, is bound to __STATIC_CONTENT_MANIFEST. This tricks @cloudflare/kv-asset-handler into disabling edge caching, meaning the most up-to-date file is always loaded from disk.
