Caddy: Reverse proxy and static files config

[valbendan]

THIS MAY BE A NOOB QUESTION

There do is an example config for reverse proxy

https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile/patterns#reverse-proxy

example.com

root * /var/www
reverse_proxy /api/* localhost:5000
file_server

But I need a reverse config:

Serve static files having a path starting with /static/ and proxy requests for everything else

I use the follow config:

example.com

root /static/* /var/www
file_server

reverse_proxy /* localhost:5000

but it seems dosen't work.
