Update Static page

A humble script that opens your webpage and sucks in parts of it and saves the HTML into a DTML Document.

The id of the DTML Document will be the page name of the URL +_static. So, if you open /web/doc/index.html the id of the DTML Document will be index.html_static. Be careful not to request URLs like: www.server.com/. Use instead www.server.com/index_html to be explicit.

Then, to use it in DTML for example you do this:

 <html>
  <dtml-if "_.has_key('index_html_static') and REQUEST.QUERYSTRING==''">
   <dtml-var index_html_static>
  <dtml-else>
   <!--DYNAMIC-CONTENT-->
     <dtml-var expensive_resource_heavy_looper>
   <!--/DYNAMIC-CONTENT-->
  </dtml-if>
 </html>

To create the static DTML Document, you first need to create an External Method Id: update_staticpage, modulename: update_staticpage, functionname: update_staticpage Here's how:

  context.update_staticpage(context.web.doc.index_html.absolute_url())

or:

  context.update_staticpage(context.web.doc.index_html.absolute_url(), container=context.somefolder)

Alternativly in DTML:

 <dtml-call "update_staticpage(web.doc.index_html.absolute_url())">

This can be useful to not have to write a cronjob:

This is a very untested and simple script. It's idea is simple and anybody is free to do whatever they want and need with it.
