How to get the "section" argument in a custom HandlerTool

Hi there!

I'm trying to implement a static handler which serves files from a zip.

So I started with writing my own "staticdir()" and I've registered it via 

cherrypy.tools.zip_staticdir = cherrypy._cptools.HandlerTool(staticdir)



First of all I'm wondering while:
cherrypy.tools.zip_staticdir = cherrypy.HandlerTool(staticdir)

does not work, but
cherrypy.tools.zip_staticdir = cherrypy.Tool(staticdir)

does.


So anyway, the biggest issue is that I need to get the section argument 
like the default staticdir function is called because my setup looks 
somehow like this:
 conf = {
   '/images': {
     'tools.zip_staticdir.on': True,
     'tools.zip_staticdir.zobj': self._core.ZipFile,
     'tools.zip_staticdir.dir': os.path.join(...)
   },
   '/js': {
     'tools.zip_staticdir.on': True,
     'tools.zip_staticdir.zobj': self._core.ZipFile,
     'tools.zip_staticdir.dir': os.path.join(...)
   },
   '/css': {
     'tools.zip_staticdir.on': True,
     'tools.zip_staticdir.zobj': self._core.ZipFile,
     'tools.zip_staticdir.dir': os.path.join(...)
   },
 '/fonts': {
     'tools.zip_staticdir.on': True,
     'tools.zip_staticdir.zobj': self._core.ZipFile,
     'tools.zip_staticdir.dir': os.path.join(...)
   }
 }

cherrypy.tree.mount(self.internalApp, '/_/', config=conf)


def staticdir(*args,**kwargs):
  print(args,kwargs)




Thanks a lot for any helpful hints!

Regards,
Alex
