export-url
I have been experimenting with the CL HTTP server. I got it running on
lcl for Solaris 5.4 and doing more or less what I want it too. Very
exciting.
However, I do not properly understand what the export-url function does
despite having read the documentation pages on the function. Admittedly,
I am a novice in HTTP, so I may be missing some basic links. I am also
not very familiar with pathnames in Lisp.
The functionality of export-url which I am interested in at present
establishes a mapping between a URL and a pathname, but how this works
is not entirely clear. Can you give me pointers to more documentation?
I get the impression from the examples file that all your resources have
to reside (or be pointed to via links) precisely one level under the
http directory. Is this the case? I also had problems recursively
importing subdirectories; the mapping does not seem to exist for the
subdirectories. The redirect mechanism is also a mystery - what
restrictions are there on the URL argument supplied and how can I
construct the alternative URLs?
Many Thanks,
Yo
