概述
mod_ext_filter presents a simple and familiar
programming model for 过滤器. With
this module, a program which reads from stdin and writes to stdout
(i.e., a Unix-style filter command) can be a filter for
Apache. This filtering mechanism is much slower than using a
filter which is specially written for the Apache API and runs
inside of the Apache server process, but it does have the
following benefits:
- the programming model is much simpler
- any programming/scripting language can be used, provided that it allows the program to read from standard input and write to standard output
- existing programs can be used unmodified as Apache filters
Even when the performance characteristics are not suitable
for production use, mod_ext_filter can be used as
a prototype environment for filters.
Examples
Generating HTML from some other type of response
# mod_ext_filter directive to define a filter
# to HTML-ize text/c files using the external
# program /usr/bin/enscript, with the type of
# the result set to text/html
ExtFilterDefine c-to-html mode=output \
intype=text/c outtype=text/html \
cmd="/usr/bin/enscript --color -W html -Ec -o - -"
<Directory "/export/home/trawick/apacheinst/htdocs/c">
# core directive to cause the new filter to
# be run on output
SetOutputFilter c-to-html
# mod_mime directive to set the type of .c
# files to text/c
AddType text/c .c
# mod_ext_filter directive to set the debug
# level just high enough to see a log message
# per request showing the configuration in force
ExtFilterOptions DebugLevel=1
</Directory>
Implementing a content encoding filter
Note: this gzip example is just for the purposes of illustration.
Please refer to mod_deflate for a practical
implementation.
# mod_ext_filter directive to define the external filter
ExtFilterDefine gzip mode=output cmd=/bin/gzip
<Location /gzipped>
# core directive to cause the gzip filter to be
# run on output
SetOutputFilter gzip
# mod_header directive to add
# "Content-Encoding: gzip" header field
Header set Content-Encoding gzip
</Location>
Slowing down the server
# mod_ext_filter directive to define a filter
# which runs everything through cat; cat doesn't
# modify anything; it just introduces extra pathlength
# and consumes more resources
ExtFilterDefine slowdown mode=output cmd=/bin/cat \
preservescontentlength
<Location />
# core directive to cause the slowdown filter to
# be run several times on output
#
SetOutputFilter slowdown;slowdown;slowdown
</Location>
Using sed to replace text in the response
# mod_ext_filter directive to define a filter which
# replaces text in the response
#
ExtFilterDefine fixtext mode=output intype=text/html \
cmd="/bin/sed s/verdana/arial/g"
<Location />
# core directive to cause the fixtext filter to
# be run on output
SetOutputFilter fixtext
</Location>
Tracing another filter
# Trace the data read and written by mod_deflate
# for a particular client (IP 192.168.1.31)
# experiencing compression problems.
# This filter will trace what goes into mod_deflate.
ExtFilterDefine tracebefore \
cmd="/bin/tracefilter.pl /tmp/tracebefore" \
EnableEnv=trace_this_client
# This filter will trace what goes after mod_deflate.
# Note that without the ftype parameter, the default
# filter type of AP_FTYPE_RESOURCE would cause the
# filter to be placed *before* mod_deflate in the filter
# chain. Giving it a numeric value slightly higher than
# AP_FTYPE_CONTENT_SET will ensure that it is placed
# after mod_deflate.
ExtFilterDefine traceafter \
cmd="/bin/tracefilter.pl /tmp/traceafter" \
EnableEnv=trace_this_client ftype=21
<Directory /usr/local/docs>
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr 192.168.1.31 trace_this_client
SetOutputFilter tracebefore;deflate;traceafter
</Directory>
Here is the filter which traces the data:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use strict;
open(SAVE, ">$ARGV[0]")
or die "can't open $ARGV[0]: $?";
while (<STDIN>) {
print SAVE $_;
print $_;
}
close(SAVE);
ExtFilterDefine 指令
| 说明 | Define an external filter |
|---|---|
| 语法 | ExtFilterDefine filtername parameters |
| 作用域 | server config |
| 状态 | 扩展(E) |
| 模块 | mod_ext_filter |
ExtFilterDefine directive defines the
characteristics of an external filter, including the program to
run and its arguments.
filtername specifies the name of the filter being
defined. This name can then be used in SetOutputFilter
directives. It must be unique among all registered filters.
At the present time, no error is reported by the
register-filter API, so a problem with duplicate names isn't
reported to the user.
Subsequent parameters can appear in any order and define the
external command to run and certain other characteristics. The
only required parameter is cmd=. These parameters
are:
cmd=cmdline- The
cmd=keyword allows you to specify the external command to run. If there are arguments after the program name, the command line should be surrounded in quotation marks (例如，cmd="/bin/mypgm arg1 arg2".) Normal shell quoting is not necessary since the program is run directly, bypassing the shell. Program arguments are blank-delimited. A backslash can be used to escape blanks which should be part of a program argument. Any backslashes which are part of the argument must be escaped with backslash themselves. In addition to the standard CGI environment variables, DOCUMENT_URI, DOCUMENT_PATH_INFO, and QUERY_STRING_UNESCAPED will also be set for the program. mode=mode- Use
mode=output(the default) for filters which process the response. Usemode=inputfor filters which process the request.mode=inputis available in Apache 2.1 and later. intype=imt- This parameter specifies the internet media type (i.e.,
MIME type) of documents which should be filtered. By default,
all documents are filtered. If
intype=is specified, the filter will be disabled for documents of other types. outtype=imt- This parameter specifies the internet media type (i.e., MIME type) of filtered documents. It is useful when the filter changes the internet media type as part of the filtering operation. By default, the internet media type is unchanged.
PreservesContentLength- The
PreservesContentLengthkeyword specifies that the filter preserves the content length. This is not the default, as most filters change the content length. In the event that the filter doesn't modify the length, this keyword should be specified. ftype=filtertype- This parameter specifies the numeric value for filter type that the filter should be registered as. The default value, AP_FTYPE_RESOURCE, is sufficient in most cases. If the filter needs to operate at a different point in the filter chain than resource filters, then this parameter will be necessary. See the AP_FTYPE_foo definitions in util_filter.h for appropriate values.
disableenv=env- This parameter specifies the name of an environment variable which, if set, will disable the filter.
enableenv=env- This parameter specifies the name of an environment variable which must be set, or the filter will be disabled.
ExtFilterOptions 指令
| 说明 | Configure mod_ext_filter options |
|---|---|
| 语法 | ExtFilterOptions option [option] ... |
| 默认值 | ExtFilterOptions DebugLevel=0 NoLogStderr |
| 作用域 | directory |
| 状态 | 扩展(E) |
| 模块 | mod_ext_filter |
ExtFilterOptions directive specifies
special processing options for mod_ext_filter.
Option can be one of
DebugLevel=n-
The
DebugLevelkeyword allows you to specify the level of debug messages generated bymod_ext_filter. By default, no debug messages are generated. This is equivalent toDebugLevel=0. With higher numbers, more debug messages are generated, and server performance will be degraded. The actual meanings of the numeric values are described with the definitions of the DBGLVL_ constants near the beginning ofmod_ext_filter.c.Note: The core directive
LogLevelshould be used to cause debug messages to be stored in the Apache error log. LogStderr | NoLogStderr- The
LogStderrkeyword specifies that messages written to standard error by the external filter program will be saved in the Apache error log.NoLogStderrdisables this feature.
示例
ExtFilterOptions LogStderr DebugLevel=0
Messages written to the filter's standard error will be stored
in the Apache error log. No debug messages will be generated by
mod_ext_filter.
