File serving URIs
You can determine the file system location of resources specific to your deployed applications on the GAS from the application URL of a request. Examples are given for document root, public images, and web components.
If the application URL is given as http://localhost:6394/demos.html) , you can locate various resource as described in Table 1.
URI path | Description |
---|---|
/ | The slash (/) is the path to the document root
configured in the Genero Application Server (GAS) configuration file. The
DOCUMENT_ROOT element is located at
/CONFIGURATION/APPLICATION_SERVER/INTERFACE_TO_CONNECTOR/DOCUMENT_ROOT , see DOCUMENT_ROOT. For example, this excerpt is from the default GAS configuration file
(as.xcf).
When
calling the demo page using the URL http://localhost:6394/demos.html, you
expect to find the demos.html file in the directory specified by the
|
/ua/i/ | In this URL the slash (/) following the ua/i/ begins the path to the public resource directory where applications' public images are found. See Paths to application resources. The
public resource directory is set by For example, an image put in this path can be found at:
The
images in common are also accessible. If you
deploy an application with public images (see Resource deployment), they are put in its deployment path,
$(res.appdata.path)/public/deployment/my_gar_file. The
$(res.public.resources) is updated to include this path (as well as
common) in a search for images. Images may then be found at a URI of the
form:
|
/ua/components | In this URL the slash (/) following the
ua/components/ is the path to the web component directory configured in the Genero
Application Server (GAS) configuration file where web components are found. The
WEB_COMPONENT_DIRECTORY element is located at
/CONFIGURATION/APPLICATION_SERVER/WEB_APPLICATION_EXECUTION_COMPONENT/WEB_COMPONENT_DIRECTORY ,
see WEB_COMPONENT_DIRECTORY . For example, this excerpt is from
the default GAS configuration file (as.xcf).
In
this example, when accessing a web component with the URL
