Hi, I try to connect ZPT to my local Filesytem. Previouesly I used localFS and DTML which worked nicely. But according to an earlier post by Dieter I learned that I should use DirectoryView from the CMFCore now. But thats not so easy as I found. Does the registration have to be done on every serverstart again? (How to automate it if so?) How to add new extensions and metatypes? Up to now I succeeded to register an arbitrary Directory on my local FS and different MetaTypes with the external Method given below. But a corresponding klass has to be given for the registration. How to do that using classes like the 'FSObject' return bad file error when I try to view the object in ZMI. Does anybody know about that? (Or how to use local FS under ZPT?) -- many thanks for your replies, Elena the code: from Products.CMFCore import FSObject from Products.CMFCore import DirectoryView DV=DirectoryView def registerLocalDir (my_dir='my_absolute_FS_path', prefix="", extList=['css', 'js'], metaList=['Style Sheet'], subdirs=0): DV.registerDirectory(my_dir, prefix, subdirs) klass=FSObject for ext in extList: DV.registerFileExtension(ext, klass) for mt in metaList: DV.registerMetaType(mt, klass) return
