Hello all, The Directory is designed to serve a single file taken from its own directory and/or subdirectories via an instance of DirectoryResource (see Directory#findTarget(Request, Response)), or to return a "text" representation of the index of a given directory via the Directory#getIndexRepresentation. It is not designed to retrieve a whole directory content in a zip file. If you want to inherit from Directory, you must create your own resource class and override the Directory#findTarget in order to create a new instance of your new resource class.
