If I wanted to run this script from say a level above is it possible

i..e

ssi_script
www

So I would like to run the content of www as the document root if that makes sense?

Error:

user@workstation user % python3 ../ssi-server/ssi_expander.py site site_expanded
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/user/work/site/../ssi-server/ssi_expander.py", line 45, in <module>
    process(source, dest)
  File "/Users/user/work/site/../ssi-server/ssi_expander.py", line 27, in process
    file(dest_path, 'w').write(ssi.InlineIncludes(src_path, "/%s" % os.path.relpath(src_path)))

Here's what I found on the internet:

The file function was removed in Python 3. In Python 3, you should use the open function instead.

open(dest_path, 'w').write(ssi.InlineIncludes(src_path, "/%s" % os.path.relpath(src_path)))

This resolves the error.

Running ./ssi_server as mentioned in the doc did not work on my Mac, I did some Googling and found that I have to use something like python ssi_server.py. Probably a Python configuration issue on my Mac, but I don't know anything about Python, and I thought I'd let you know. More noobs might run into this.

Thanks for creating ssi-server, saves me lots of copy-pasting when building HTML prototypes!

I followed the quick start guide, but last step did not work for me:

I was running this on an M1 MacBook Air, and have installed Python 3. I can run the server, but cannot get it to process include files.

I tweeted here: https://twitter.com/lloydi/status/1555296947677847552?s=20&t=JL-uI1AihhLf--Rp4IobaQ

People referred me to this.

If you are able to help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks
