Hey, There is a lot of terminology here that would not be understood by some random sys admin coming to have a look at the config file.
Below I pasted it here without the comments. Sometimes it is good to have a look at things without comments to see how readable they are. Is this config file reusable? Can I place it in a path of other apps, and then it could live in say /app2 instead of at / Can it not care about the server it is running on? [server:main] use: Paste wsgiutils port: 8080 host: 127.0.0.1 [application: main] use: Paste pipeline pipeline: printdebug urlmap [filter: printdebug] use: Paste printdebug [application: urlmap] use: Paste urlmap /home = fb1 /other = fb2 [application: fb1] use: FileBrowser app browse_path = /home/ianb [application: fb2] use: FileBrowser app browse_path = /home/rflosi On 7/29/05, Ian Bicking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've created a branch in Paste with a rough experiment in WSGI > deployment, declarative but (I think) more general than what's been > discussed.
