How to redirect all pages only to index.html using htaccess file and not redirect the image files

How to redirect all pages (pages only) to index.html using htaccess file and not redirect the image files. For some reason I am using this code and an image file on the index.html page isn't showing up. 

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.html$
RewriteRule .* /index.html [L,R=302]

You need to add a .htaccess file inside the public directory, so whenever you build your app, it automatically gets copied to the new dist directory. The content of.htaccess should be like:


RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.html$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.html [L]

A nicer way might be just to ignore existing files. For example:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule .* / [L,R=302]

The !-d says to ignore the rewrite if there is an existing directory that meets the match.

The !-f says to ignore the rewrite if there is an existing file that meets the match.

Everything else will get rewritten.

Try this code :

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.html$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(gif|jpe?g|png|css|js)$
RewriteRule .* /index.html [L,R=302]

Keep your rules simple. Instead of filtering what shouldn't match, just match on the files.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index.html$
RewriteRule .*\.(php|html)$ /index.html [L,R=302]

Add the following before the last line

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  !(\.png|\.jpg|\.gif|\.jpeg|\.bmp)$
