Is there a reason why you want to do it file by file, as opposed to by folder? Would something like this work for you: class bDirectory(Directory): def __init__(self): self.my_statics = StaticDirectory($(file system path to here}+'/static', list_directory=True, cache_time=${http cache time, in seconds}, follow_links=True) def get_exports(self): yield("static", "my_statics", None, None) def index[html](self): def render[html](): """ Static file here! """ Note that this way you could put as many files as you want under b/static/. You may even symbolically link to any other folder elsewhere on your file system -- this could be very useful if your static files are managed separately, e.g. a third party javascript package. mario Quoting Ernesto Adorio: > Instead of putting all static files inside a static directory in the main > directory of a QP site module, and making declarations in the slash.qpy, I > am intterested in declaring and accessing static files inside a submodule as > I used to in Quixote. > > a > a/slash.qpy > a/static > b > b/b.qpy <-- declare and reference static file here > b/static > b/static/myfile.doc <-- Static file here! > > I am interested in declaring a static file myfile.doc whose complete path > name is "/home/toto/a/b/static/myfile.doc" inside b.qpy.
