yeah it's "search roots" as in "to search for the (camli)Roots". >> > Are there already URLs for accessing the most recent contents of my >> > search >> > root files? >> >> It sounds to me like you might just want to use a permanode for each >> of your files.

Ok, I understand what you mean/want now. I think you're right that the web UI can't get you that kind of URL. Maybe it could. On the other hand, the web UI is an interface for humans. it's not supposed to be the API that your app is going to hit to get its HTML/js/whatever resources. Your app should hit things like the search handler (like the UI does) and the blobserver itself. Basically you send a search query asking to describe the permanode you're interested in, and you can find out in the JSON response if it has some camliContent or whatever else. You can probably even send a search query that directly gives you the camliContent of a permanode if it has one. And then, you just ask the blobserver for the file under that camliContent (this is what camget -contents does for example). See pkg/search and its clients - the web UI, the publisher app, the camtool command - to learn more about the search queries.
