<H1>Module mod_example</h1>
|
|
<P>
|
|
This module is contained in the <CODE>modules/mod_example.c</CODE> file, and
|
|
<STRONG>is not</STRONG> compiled in by default. It illustrates many of
|
|
the aspects of the
|
|
<A
|
|
HREF="../misc/API.html"
|
|
REL="Help"
|
|
>Apache 1.2 API</A>
|
|
and, when used, demonstrates the manner in which module callbacks are
|
|
triggered by the server.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<H2>Summary</H2>
|
|
<P>
|
|
The files in the <CODE>src/modules/example directory</CODE> under the
|
|
Apache distribution directory tree are provided as an example to those
|
|
that wish to write modules that use the Apache API.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
The main file is <CODE>mod_example.c</CODE>, which illustrates all
|
|
the different callback mechanisms and call syntaces. By no means does
|
|
an add-on module need to include routines for all of the callbacks -
|
|
quite the contrary!
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
The example module is an actual working module. If you link it into
|
|
your server, enable the "example-handler" handler for a location, and
|
|
then browse to that location, you will see a display of
|
|
some of the tracing the example module did as the various callbacks
|
|
were made.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>
|
|
To include the example module in your server, follow the steps below:
|
|
</P>
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI>Uncomment the "Module example_module" line near the bottom of
|
|
the <CODE>src/Configuration</CODE> file. If there isn't one, add
|
|
it; it should look like this:
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
Module example_module modules/example/mod_example.o
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Run the <CODE>src/Configure</CODE> script
|
|
("<SAMP>cd src; ./Configure</SAMP>"). This will
|
|
build the Makefile for the server itself, and update the
|
|
<CODE>src/modules/Makefile</CODE> for any additional modules you
|
|
have requested from beneath that subdirectory.
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Make the server (run "<SAMP>make</SAMP>" in the <CODE>src</CODE>
|
|
directory).
|
|
</LI>
|
|
</OL>
|
|
<P>
|
|
To add another module of your own:
|
|
</P>
|
|
<OL TYPE="A">
|
|
<LI><SAMP>mkdir src/modules/<EM>mymodule</EM></SAMP>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI><SAMP>cp src/modules/example/* src/modules/<EM>mymodule</EM></SAMP>
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Modify the files in the new directory.
|
|
</LI>
|
|
<LI>Follow steps [1] through [3] above, with appropriate changes.
|
|
</LI>
|
|
</OL>
|
|
<H3>
|
|
Using the <SAMP>mod_example</SAMP> Module
|
|
</H3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
To activate the example module, include a block similar to the
|
|
following in your <SAMP>srm.conf</SAMP> file:
|
|
</P>
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
<Location /example-info>
|
|
SetHandler example-handler
|
|
</Location>
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
<P>
|
|
As an alternative, you can put the following into a
|
|
<A
|
|
HREF="core.html#accessfilename"
|
|
><SAMP>.htaccess</SAMP></A>
|
|
file and then request the file "test.example" from that
|
|
location:
|
|
</P>
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
AddHandler example-handler .example
|
|
</PRE>
|
|
<P>
|
|
After reloading/restarting your server, you should be able to browse
|
|
to this location and see the brief display mentioned earlier.

The Example directive activates the example module's content handler
|
|
for a particular location or file type. It takes no arguments. If
|
|
you browse to an URL to which the example content-handler applies, you
|
|
will get a display of the routines within the module and how and in
|
|
what order they were called to service the document request.
