[Seaside] Re: [Seaside-dev] Seaside 3.0 API for accessing external stylesheet and javascript files?

[Conrad Taylor]

Lukas, it seems that WAFileLibrary serves the static content from the image.
 I'm really looking to serve all my static content (i.e. images,
stylesheets, and javascripts files) from Apache or another web server.  I
understand the Apache side of the configuration after reading sections
22.3.5 and 22.3.6 of the "Dynamic Web Development with Seaside".  Also, the
WAFileLibrary seems like a great deal of work to an external resource.  In
short, I was thinking that I could simply do the following:

stylesheets =
#( "/stylesheets/main.css" "/stylesheets/a.css" "/stylesheets/main.css" ).
stylesheets do: [ :each |  html link with: [  self type: "text/css" href:
 "/stylesheets/main.css" media: "screen" charset: "utf-8". ].
javascripts
= #( "/stylesheets/main.css" "/stylesheets/a.css" "/stylesheets/main.css" ).
stylesheets do: [ :each |  html script with: [  self type:  "text/html"
source:  "/stylesheets/main.css"  charset: "utf-8". ].

or something even easier

html link with: [  self all from: "/stylesheets" cache: true. ]. 'This will
make all the stylesheets in /stylsheets available to the application.'

Now, I would like to insert the javascript files at the end of the page like
this so that they are the last thing loaded when the page is rendered.

html script with: [  self all from: "/javascripts"  cache: true. ]. 'This
will make all the javascript files in /javascripts available to the
application.'

Also, I come from a Rails background where 'cache => true' will generate a
file which contains all the javascripts and a file that contains all
the stylesheets respectively.  Other options can include "recursive:" and
"fileName:"
