Hi,
I got a slightly modified download function:
def fast_download():
session.forget(response)
cache.action(time_expire=604800)(lambda: 0)()
# very basic security (only allow fast_download on
your_table.upload_field):
if not request.args(0).startswith("Images."):
return download()
...
filename = os.path.join(request.folder,'uploads',request.args(0))
#response.headers['Last-Modified'] = time.strftime("%a, %d %b %Y
%H:%M:%S +0000", time.localtime(os.path.getmtime(filename)))
return response.stream(open(filename,'rb'))
my problem is that I get quite a few attempts to get to the images directly
like: /default/fast_download/Images.thumb.bb2649....jpg etc.
39 since yesterday. which raises an error. The User Agent claims to be the
GoogleImageBot at least most of the times.
I did put this line in the robots.txt:
Disallow: /default/fast_download/
but it seems to have no effect at all.
Any ideas on the strategies I should use when the function is called directly?
