Wouldn't Route::static make more sense? Since those will not be handled by Yii, Route::get is actually not the proper call.

What do you mean?
The example from your issue

//Assets for urlGenerator, requests will not be handled by Yii
    Route::get('/images/{file}')
        ->static() 
        ->host($appParams->assetDomain)
        ->name('img'),

That's all. You can use static routes in a common routes file/array.

I meant

    //Assets for urlGenerator, requests will not be handled by Yii
    Route::static('/images/{file}')
        ->host($appParams->assetDomain)
        ->name('img'),

Sorry, I commented without enough information.

Maybe it makes sense. Need a review from more devs.

There was an ability to make URL rule with matching only or generation only in Yii 2: https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/web/UrlRule.php#L38

I haven't personally used it myself so I'm not sure about use cases.

    //Assets for urlGenerator, requests will not be handled by Yii
    Route::static('/images/{file}')
        ->host($appParams->assetDomain)
        ->name('img'),

Done

Suggested change

	public function testStaticFailWihAddAction(): void
	public function testStaticFailWithAddAction(): void

[samdark]

There is no need for a separate method. Generation-only route is the one that doesn't have action.
