I'm coming into this thread with little actual hands-on Slide experience, but I'm curious about this particular topic.

Would it be possible to configure Slide (perhaps with a custom metadata implementation) that could point at an existing filesystem directory and still have Slide recognize it fine and the metadata that is served up be based on the actual file/directory properties (like contentlength and contenttype - I hope I've gotten those terms right)?

It seems like this should be possible - perhaps not ideal, but still possible in order to hook in a directory tree within a Slide server.

Enquiring minds want to know.

Thanks,
Erik

Hi Joe,

you have to check-in your files and directories into Slide. You
can't just point to an existing directory. Slide won't serve
content or structure or so which had not been checked-in via
Slide before.

URI mapping of files:
<filespath>/files</filespath>

But the directory will be under the root path which you specify
in <contentstore>.

If you only want to expose the /files directory and its
children, you can set a <scope> in web.xml.
