[Twisted-Python] Re: serving dynamic on root and still serve static somehow

This is so tricky. Your suggestion does not work because I want to pass a
parameter for the dynamic page which I read out with request.postpath[0].

You know what would solve my problem really quickly: If I would know how to
call a child manually (or not even a child but the static.File('.')
resource). I have come up with the following code but it does throw me a " does not
return a string" error:

class Container(resource.Resource):
    isLeaf = True
    
    def render(self, request):        
        if request.postpath[0] == 'static':
            return self.getChild('static', request)
        else:
            return doContainer(request)

root = Container()
root.putChild('static', static.File('.'))
site = server.Site(root) 

reactor.listenTCP(8080, site)
reactor.run()
