I may be asking this in the wrong place but I have a tal page where I want to use python to display only the most recent addition to a folder of files.
I can sort the folder and return all the files easily with: return sequence.sort(files, (('bobobase_modification_time', 'cmp', 'desc'),))
How do I return just the most recent one? (I tried sorting and then using return max(files) but that doesn't give me all the properties and I need them for display)
If it's sorted, you can use a Python slice:: return sequence.sort(files, (('bobobase_modification_time', 'cmp', 'desc'),))[0] The trick is the last three characters. See http://docs.python.org/tut/node5.html --jcc -- "Building Websites with Plone" http://plonebook.packtpub.com/
