"directory" refers to a directory on the
server's file system.
The list of files presented by Pier is taken from the list of files in
that directory. Files will appear and disappear, as well as changing
contents.
Ok, I see.
So the problem is that if I create a Pier page that is
correct at one
time, it won't necessarily be correct, in the sense of matching the
contents of the directory on disk, later.
Yes, such a use case is not out-of-the-box supported. You'll need to
do some programming here. Depending on how close you want to integrate
it, you can create your own PRStructure subclass that handles this for
you; or, as others already suggested, have a Seaside component that
does something meaningful with the file directory.
