Maybe put the static files in a subdirectory so that you can change
the config value that says where Pylons should look for static files?
/templates/themes/mytheme
/static/css
/js
/img
base.mako
layout1.mako
layout2.mako
In your middleware, there should be some lines like this:
public_dir = config['pylons.paths']['static_files']
static_app = StaticURLParser(public_dir, cache_max_age=43200)
Instead of getting the public_dir value from 'pylons.paths', which is
hardcoded in environment.py, you could set it in a config file.
One thing I'm curious about is whether it is possible to dynamically
change the StaticURLParser's public_dir location, or would you have to
restart the app?
