Description
When returning a ComplexOutput as Reference (output as_reference is True), the filename generated by the server (and used in the built URL) is always "input", eg "input.csv" for a "txt/csv" output, or "input.xml" for an "application/xml" output. This is misleading to users as this is actually the Output file.
After some digging through the sourcecode, I found where that name is set:
|
def _build_file_name(self, href=''): |
|
"""Return a file name for the local system.""" |
|
url_path = urlparse(href).path or '' |
|
file_name = os.path.basename(url_path).strip() or 'input' |
|
(prefix, suffix) = os.path.splitext(file_name) |
|
suffix = suffix or self.extension |
It appears there is no way to set this name on the ComlexOutput object, or on the FileStorage object or on the DataHandler object.
