<h3>Summary</h3>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
<p>This module allows the server to be extended with scripts written in the
 | 
						||
Lua programming language.  The extension points (hooks) available with
 | 
						||
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_lua.html">mod_lua</a></code> include many of the hooks available to
 | 
						||
natively compiled Apache HTTP Server modules, such as mapping requests to
 | 
						||
files, generating dynamic responses, access control, authentication, and
 | 
						||
authorization</p>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
<p>More information on the Lua programming language can be found at the
 | 
						||
<a href="http://www.lua.org/">the Lua website</a>.</p>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
<div class="note"><code>mod_lua</code> is still in experimental state.
 | 
						||
Until it is declared stable, usage and behavior may change
 | 
						||
at any time, even between stable releases of the 2.4.x series.
 | 
						||
Be sure to check the CHANGES file before upgrading.</div>

<code>mod_lua</code> provides a handler named <code>lua-script</code>,

which can be used with an <code>AddHandler</code> directive:</p>
 |

<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">

<p>

This will cause <code>mod_lua</code> to handle requests for files

<code>handle</code> function.

<h2><a name="writinghandlers" id="writinghandlers">Writing Handlers</a></h2>
 |

<p> In the Apache HTTP Server API, the handler is a specific kind of hook
 | 
						||
responsible for generating the response.  Examples of modules that include a
 | 
						||
handler are <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code>, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code>,
 | 
						||
and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_status.html">mod_status</a></code>.</p>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
<p><code>mod_lua</code> always looks to invoke a Lua function for the handler, rather than
 | 
						||
just evaluating a script body CGI style. A handler function looks
 | 
						||
something like this:</p>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
<pre class="prettyprint lang-lua">

 | 
						||
            r:puts( string.format("%s: %s", k, v) )
 | 
						||
        end
 | 
						||
    elseif r.method == 'POST' then
 |

        for k, v in pairs( r:parsebody() ) do

 |

 |

<p>Hook functions are how modules (and Lua scripts) participate in the
 | 
						||
processing of requests. Each type of hook exposed by the server exists for
 | 
						||
a specific purposes such as mapping requests to the filesystem,
 | 
						||
performing access control, or setting mimetypes.  General purpose hooks
 | 
						||
that simply run at handy times in the request lifecycle exist as well.</p>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
<p>Hook functions are passed the request object as their only argument.
 | 
						||
They can return any value, depending on the hook, but most commonly
 | 
						||
they'll return OK, DONE, or DECLINED, which you can write in lua as
 | 
						||
<code>apache2.OK</code>, <code>apache2.DONE</code>, or
 | 
						||
<code>apache2.DECLINED</code>, or else an HTTP status code.</p>

    ones) each time that file is needed, and reloads it if the

    modified time indicates it is newer than the one it has

    Add a hook (at APR_HOOK_MIDDLE) to the translate name phase of
 | 
						||
    request processing. The hook function receives a single
 | 
						||
    argument, the request_rec, and should return a status code,
 | 
						||
    which is either an HTTP error code, or the constants defined
 | 
						||
    in the apache2 module: apache2.OK, apache2.DECLINED, or
 | 
						||
    apache2.DONE. </p>
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
    <p>For those new to hooks, basically each hook will be invoked
 | 
						||
    until one of them returns apache2.OK. If your hook doesn't
 | 
						||
    want to do the translation it should just return
 | 
						||
    apache2.DECLINED. If the request should stop processing, then
 | 
						||
    return apache2.DONE.</p>
