Re: [Hypercontent-users] Reusing data across sites

[Alex V. <al...@bi...>]

Hi Carl,

    There are a couple of possibilities for reusing data across sites. =20

1) You can mount the course site repository in another site using a "moun=
t"
tag in the project definition of the site that wants to borrow the data, =
below
which you would just specify the filesystem-def for the course repository=
. You
could map it to "/courses/" or something, and then include
"/courses/dir/file.xml" which would correspond to "/dir/file.xml" in the
shared repository.

2) You could try including it using the special "hypercontent" url handle=
r,
e.g.  include source=3D"hypercontent:/project-name/dir/file.xml"

With option 1 you should also be able to include with * patterns, but not=
 with
option 2, which will support only literal file locations.

Cheers,
Alex
