Name¶

mod_rewrite — http(8gx) processing plugin for altering HTTP request URIs before processing

Description¶

mod_rewrite can alter request URIs. It runs before any of the other built-in or HTTP processing modules.

Configuration directives¶

This (built-in) plugin shares http.cfg. See http(8gx).

Rewrite map¶

The filemap that specifies which URIs to handle is rewrite.txt, which is searched for in config_file_path. The usual location is /etc/gromox/rewrite.txt.

Each line in this file consists of 3 columns separated by whitespace:

• A POSIX Basic Regular Expression (cf. regcomp(3)) for matching the original URI.
• The fixed sequence "=>".
• Replacement string. Captures can be spliced using \1, \2, .. up to a maximum of \9. The sequence \0 splices the entire string (equivalent of Perl's $&).

If the file has no lines, no paths will be rewritten. If the file is absent however, a set of default entries will be used.

Default rules¶

\(/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync\) => \1/grommunio-sync/index.php

Files¶

•

config_file_path/rewrite.txt: Rewrite map specifying which paths this plugin shall handle.
