From 56d0fe4a9f97daa4d5fd0c28ea83c6ef32856b3d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris McDonough Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2011 01:13:27 -0400 Subject: - New API class: ``pyramid.static.static_view``. This supersedes the deprecated ``pyramid.view.static`` class. ``pyramid.satic.static_view`` by default serves up documents as the result of the request's ``path_info``, attribute rather than it's ``subpath`` attribute (the inverse was true of ``pyramid.view.static``, and still is). ``pyramid.static.static_view`` exposes a ``use_subpath`` flag for use when you don't want the static view to behave like the older deprecated version. - The ``pyramid.view.static`` class has been deprecated in favor of the newer ``pyramid.static.static_view`` class. A deprecation warning is raised when it is used. You should replace it with a reference to ``pyramid.static.static_view`` with the ``use_subpath=True`` argument. --- docs/narr/assets.rst | 29 +++++++++++++++-------------- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) (limited to 'docs/narr/assets.rst') diff --git a/docs/narr/assets.rst b/docs/narr/assets.rst index 0d50b0106..d57687477 100644 --- a/docs/narr/assets.rst +++ b/docs/narr/assets.rst @@ -299,7 +299,7 @@ URLs against assets made accessible by registering a custom static view.
