Setting the public directory in a app folder

[FardeemMunir]

I have this folder for my app generated with [Yeoman](http://yeoman.io “Yeoman”). So this is the folder tree

– [name]
– app/ (public)
– test/ (public)
– //other stuff

I need to push all my files to pagoda box, but need to set the app folder to be the public. so when I visit _myapp.pagodabox.com_ I get the contents of the app folder.

How do I do it?

This is more specific to Pagoda Box than CSS in general, but you can do it by setting your httpd_document_root in your Boxfile. Here’s an example:

web1:
  type: php
  httpd_document_root: app

Your app directory will then become your “web root” and load when you go to your domain. Know however that you can only have one document root in a single web. So with this setting, the test directory won’t be accessible through your browser.

If you needed that to be publicly accessible as well, you’d have to create a second web service and set its httpd_document_root to test.

Here’s the link to their docs explaining the document root:
