All the other discussion aside, this is really the best way to implement
this. FileApp has several useful features, like respecting the
conditional headers, setting Content-Length, etc. It would look like:
class MyController(BaseController):
def index(self):
# ... auth stuff, or whatever...
wsgi_app = FileApp('/path/to/file')
return wsgi_app(req.environ, req.start_response)
Should req have a method like req.delegate(any_wsgi_app)? Also, perhaps
it would look for a .wsgi_application argument, so you could do:
exc = httpexceptions.HTTPRedirect(headers=[('location', loc)])
return req.delegate(exc)
Anyway, that's an aside; you should use FileApp regardless.
