FWIW that's what i ended up with, actually. the view extracts the filesystem root setting from the request and then just passes that particular setting to the helper methods that require it. in my testing i create a sandbox and pass *its* location to the helpers. presto, no request involved, no wsgi app instantiated! > That object might be an "environment" in which code executes. in my case that's an instance of a 'dropbox' class that receives a root path in its init. i'm actually rather happy with how it turned out :) tom > > \malthe > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "pylons-discuss" group. > To post to this group, send email to pylons-discuss@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > pylons-discuss+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/pylons-discuss?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
