New API: Server and FileSystem
- 
 FYI, I just added the deleteFileOrDirectory()function...
- 
 This is awesome! Have been waiting for these features. Bravo!! 
- 
 @Christoph-Hart Did someone tinkered with the File APIs? 
 I tried getFolder and findFiles with no success.
 I put a *.js on the Desktop and used the location wildcard but findFiles returns an empty array...FileSystem.getFolder("Desktop"); var fileList = FileSystem.findFiles("Desktop", "*.js", true)My end goal is to dump an encrypted file (but I don't see a dump file method except for the ol'dumpJSON of course) 
- 
 Use FileSystem.Desktopas argument.And your end goal is one line of code :) FileSystem.getFolder(FileSystem.Desktop).getChildFile("license.dat").writeEncryptedObject({"key": "1234"}, "1haDUHNEK1($NR");

 @Christoph-Hart Thanks it works like a charm. 
 Although when using AppData location it does not work in Hise (Unknown function 'getChildFile')
 USE_BACKENDissue?
- 
 @Christoph-Hart AppData does not work on compiled plugin either 
- 
 Ah yes, I forgot to implement that one - it's a bit annoying because I have to rewrite some things to get the app data folder working in HISE... 
- 
 @Christoph-Hart Just seen the commit  
 testing...
- 
 Is there a way to pull an image from a server to paint onto a panel? Also could you add a function to check for network connectivity? because it's desirable to display different content if the user is working offline. 
- 
 FileSystem.browse(var startFolder, bool forSaving, String wildcard, var callback)Documentation not clear. What is the wildcard? Is there a way to get the start folder to be the config files location (similar to the {PROJECT_FOLDER} wildcard)? When I set forSavingto true it brings up an Open file dialog, when set to false it brings up a Save dialog. Shouldn't this be the other way around? What parameters are passed to the callback, is it just the file?FileSystem.getFolder(var locationType)What is locationType?

 @d-healey I see your newest develop branch commit includes the new Server API  Is this safe to use for now? Is this safe to use for now?
- 
 @Lunacy-Audio Use Christoph's Scriptnode, it's newer than my fork and includes all my changes.

 Feel free to test it and give feedback, but donβt rely on it yet for a project as I might have to do some breaking changes for the API

I canΒ΄t find one. Just this page and the links at the top. But the docs pages do not have their own category pages with examples:

 Oops, you're right, I think the great @Dominik-Mayer has accidently uploaded an older doc state. I'll fix it tomorrow. If you can't wait, you can browse the original markdowns here: https://github.com/christophhart/hise_documentation/tree/master/scripting/scripting-api/file

 This seems pretty cool, I dont really understand it, but will this allow you to export midi on a compiled plugin?

 @Christoph-Hart Still waiting on updated doc state. Can we fix this please?
