Read MediaFlux HTTP logs (to see what services the desktop uses) #31
During the demo this morning, it was suggested that one way to learn about the system is to use the web desktop application, and then look in the server logs to see how our actions correspond to HTTP requests.
One way to look at the server logs would be through their API, using the posix.fs.file.read service... but before I get there, I thought it would be easier just to get a directory listing. That requires a few parameters that I'm not sure how to fill in:
:mount The name of the mount point
:path The file path for the mount point.
:uid The caller's user id. The UID must exist in the
identity map associated with the mount point,
otherwise the call will not be permitted. The caller
must be that user (id) or hold system-administrator
permissions to act as another user.
Actually reading a file will have its own complications
This is not a high priority -- Eventually CSES may be helpful for support, but we don't want to overload them right now.
