Class FilePath
- Known Subclasses:
-
CGIDirectory,
File
I am a path on the filesystem that only permits 'downwards'
access.
Instantiate me with a pathname (for example,
FilePath('/home/myuser/public_html')) and I will attempt to only provide
access to files which reside insidpe that path. I may be a path to a
file, a directory, or a file which does not exist.
The correct way to use me is to instantiate me, and then do ALL
filesystem access through me. In other words, do not import the 'os'
module; if you need to open a file, call my 'open' method. If you need to
list a directory, call my 'path' method.
Even if you pass me a relative path, I will convert that to an
absolute path internally.

preauthChild(self,
path)

safe. |

content,
ext)
|
| |
siblingExtension(self,
ext)
|
| |
siblingExtensionSearch(self,
*exts)
Attempt to return a path with my name, given multiple possible
extensions. |
| |
splitext(self)
|
| |
touch(self)
|
childSearchPreauth(self,
*paths)
Return my first existing child with a name in 'paths'.
paths is expected to be a list of *pre-secured* path fragments; in
most cases this will be specified by a system administrator and not an
arbitrary user.
If no appropriately-named children exist, this will return None.

globChildren(self,
pattern)
Assuming I am representing a directory, return a list of FilePaths
representing my children that match the given pattern.
-
|
preauthChild(self,
path)
Use me if `path' might have slashes in it, but you know they're
safe.
(NOT slashes at the beginning. It still needs to be a _child_).
-
|
siblingExtensionSearch(self,
*exts)
Attempt to return a path with my name, given multiple possible
extensions.
Each extension in exts will be tested and the first path which
exists will be returned. If no path exists, None will be returned. If
'' is in exts, then if the file referred to by this path exists, 'self'
will be returned.
The extension '*' has a magic meaning, which means "any path
that begins with self.path+'.' is acceptable".
