Re: Flowscript - delete file

Hi Peter,

It's not flowscript, but I believe one can also use the source-writing 
transformer to delete xml files from the filesystem:

<page>
    ...
    <source:delete>
      <source:source>context://doc/editable/my.xml</source:source>
    <source:delete>
    ...
  </page>

One can insert the exact filename via a sitemap parameter/xslt variable earlier in the chain, then use:

<map:transform type="write-source"/>

to delete.

See: https://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/sourcewriting-transformer.html
