How do I configure IIS for URL Rewriting an AngularJS application in HTML5 mode?

I have the AngularJS seed project and I've added

$locationProvider.html5Mode(true).hashPrefix('!');

to the app.js file. I want to configure IIS 7 to route all requests to

http://localhost/app/index.html

so that this works for me. How do I do this?

Update:

I've just discovered, downloaded and installed the IIS URL Rewrite module, hoping this will make it easy and obvious to achieve my goal.

Update 2:

I guess this sums up what I'm trying to achieve (taken from the AngularJS Developer documentation):

Using this mode requires URL rewriting on server side, basically you have to rewrite all your links to entry point of your application (e.g. index.html)

Update 3:

I'm still working on this and I realise I need to NOT redirect (have rules that rewrite) certain URLs such as

http://localhost/app/lib/angular/angular.js
http://localhost/app/partials/partial1.html

so anything that is in the css, js, lib or partials directories isn't redirected. Everything else will need to be redirected to app/index.html

Anyone know how to achieve this easily without having to add a rule for every single file?

Update 4:

I have 2 inbound rules defined in the IIS URL Rewrite module. The first rule is:

IIS URL Rewrite Inbound Rule 1

The second rule is:

IIS URL Rewrite Inbound Rule 2

Now when I navigate to localhost/app/view1 it loads the page, however the supporting files (the ones in the css, js, lib and partials directories) are also being rewritten to the app/index.html page - so everything is coming back as the index.html page no matter what URL is used. I guess this means my first rule, that is supposed to prevent these URLs from being processed by the second rule, isn't working.. any ideas? ...anyone? ...I feel so alone... :-(

I write out a rule in web.config after $locationProvider.html5Mode(true) is set in app.js.

Hope, helps someone out.

  <system.webServer>
    <rewrite>
      <rules>
        <rule name="AngularJS Routes" stopProcessing="true">
          <match url=".*" />
          <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
            <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
            <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
            <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" pattern="^/(api)" negate="true" />
          </conditions>
          <action type="Rewrite" url="/" />
        </rule>
      </rules>
    </rewrite>
  </system.webServer>

In my index.html I added this to <head>

<base href="/">

Don't forget to install IIS URL Rewrite on server.

Also if you use Web API and IIS, this will work if your API is at www.yourdomain.com/api because of the third input (third line of condition).
