[Zope] Subfolders in LocalFS

[Jeff Nielsen / UgoFast]

Thierry,

I'm not sure I can show you the light, but I might be able to give you
an idea. I do a similar thing on my site. I store a path in a FSSession
variable and access the files in it with the following syntax:

<dtml-in "images[FSSession['LoginCompanyImagesPath']].fileIds()">

With this, I can access subdirectories several levels deep.

Hope this helps.


>I'm trying to get the content of a subfolder from a directory structure
using LocalFS doing the following :

><dtml-in
expr="Pictures['subfolder1']['subfolder2']['subfolder3'].fileItems()">
><dtml-var id>
></dtml-in>

>So far, everything looks fine...

>The actual problem is that I'm not able to enter a subfolder defined in
a variable way. It works out fine when >there is only one subfolder :

><dtml-call "REQUEST.set('location','Summer')">
><dtml-in expr="Pictures[Summer].fileItems()">
><dtml-var id>
></dtml-in>

>but what to do if we need a subfolder's subfolder ? We can try typing :

><dtml-call "REQUEST.set('location','Summer/Vacation')">
><dtml-in expr="Pictures[Summer].fileItems()">
><dtml-var id>
></dtml-in>

>to get the content of the Summer/Vacation folder...
>But this fails in ZOPE ! Can someone show me the light please. Thanks,
Thierry
