NAME

Apache::AxKit::Plugin::QueryStringCacheRegexp - Cache based on QS and regular expression matching

SYNOPSIS

  SetHandler axkit
  AxAddPlugin Apache::AxKit::Plugin::QueryStringCacheRegexp
  PerlSetVar AxQueryStringCacheRegexpUse    '\w{2,15}'
  PerlSetVar AxQueryStringCacheRegexpIgnore 'foo.*'

DESCRIPTION

This module is a replacement for Apache::AxKit::Plugin::QueryStringCache. It offers the following at the expense of a little overhead:

The querystring is "taken apart", the parameters are matched against a positive (use) and a negative (ignore) pattern, both to be specified in httpd.conf. A changed order of parameters, old (&) vs. new-style (;) delimiters or multiple occurances of the same parameter will not force AxKit to retransform a document.

Parameters taken into account will have to match the use-pattern and not match the ignore-pattern (if given).

Setting AxDebugLevel 7 or greater prints some debug-info to the log.

PerlSetVar AxQueryStringCacheRegexpUse '^\w{2,15}$'

Takes a perl regular expression; ^\w+$ is used if omitted.

PerlSetVar AxQueryStringCacheRegexpIgnore '^foo.*'

Takes a perl regular expression; No negative matching is made if omitted.

In this example above, one defines all parameters of 2 to 15 alphanumeric characters which do not begin with "foo", as significant for the cache.

BUGS/FEATURES

None known at this time.
