<p>Historically, there are several syntax variants for expressions
|
|
used to express a condition in the different modules of the Apache
|
|
HTTP Server. There is some ongoing effort to only use a single
|
|
variant, called <em>ap_expr</em>, for all configuration directives.
|
|
This document describes the <em>ap_expr</em> expression parser.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The <em>ap_expr</em> expression is intended to replace most other
|
|
expression variants in HTTPD. For example, the deprecated <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_ssl.html#sslrequire">SSLRequire</a></code> expressions can be replaced
|
|
by <a href="mod/mod_authz_core.html#reqexpr">Require expr</a>. </p>

<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backus%E2%80%93Naur_Form">Backus-Naur
|
|
Form</a> (BNF) is a notation technique for context-free grammars,
|
|
often used to describe the syntax of languages used in computing.
|
|
In most cases, expressions are used to express boolean values.
|
|
For these, the starting point in the BNF is <code>expr</code>.
|
|
However, a few directives like <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_log_debug.html#logmessage">LogMessage</a></code> accept expressions
|
|
that evaluate to a string value. For those, the starting point in
|
|
the BNF is <code>string</code>.

|
<p>The expression parser provides a number of variables of the form
|
|
<code>%{HTTP_HOST}</code>. Note that the value of a variable may depend
|
|
on the phase of the request processing in which it is evaluated. For
|
|
example, an expression used in an <code class="directive"><If ></code>
|
|
directive is evaluated before authentication is done. Therefore,
|
|
<code>%{REMOTE_USER}</code> will not be set in this case.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For information on setting and manipulating request environment
|
|
variables (using <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_env.html#setenv">SetEnv</a></code>,
|
|
<code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_setenvif.html#setenvif">SetEnvIf</a></code>,
|
|
<code class="module"><a href="./mod/mod_rewrite.html">mod_rewrite</a></code>'s <code>[E=...]</code> flag, and
|
|
others), see <a href="env.html">Environment Variables in Apache httpd</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The following variables provide the values of the named HTTP request
|
|
headers. The values of other headers can be obtained with the
|
|
<code>req</code> <a href="#functions">function</a>. Using these
|
|
variables may cause the header name to be added to the Vary
|
|
header of the HTTP response, except where otherwise noted for the
|
|
directive accepting the expression. The <code>req_novary</code>
|
|
<a href="#functions">function</a> may be used to circumvent this
|
|
behavior.</p>

|
|

<p>The functions marked as "ordering" in the final column require some

|
consideration for the ordering of different components of the server,
|
|

<h3>Environment variable ordering</h3>
|
|
When environment variables are looked up within an
|
|
<<code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#if">If</a></code>> condition, it's important
|
|
to consider how extremely early in request processing that this
|
|
resolution occurs. As a guideline, any directive defined outside of virtual host
|
|
context (directory, location, htaccess) is not likely to have yet had a
|
|
chance to execute. <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_setenvif.html#setenvif">SetEnvIf</a></code>
|
|
in virtual host scope is one directive that runs prior to this resolution
|
|
<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
When <code>reqenv</code> is used outside of <<code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#if">If</a></code>>, the resolution will generally occur later, but the
|
|
exact timing depends on the directive the expression has been used within.
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <code>reqenv</code> function can be used to test
|
|
<a href="env.html#special">special-purpose environment variables</a>
|
|
(such as <code>no-gzip</code>, <code>nokeepalive</code>, etc.) as
|
|
well as any variables set via <a href="env.html#setting">SetEnv,
|
|
SetEnvIf, or mod_rewrite</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>When the functions <code>req</code> or <code>http</code> are used,
|
|
the header name will automatically be added to the Vary header of the
|
|
HTTP response, except where otherwise noted for the directive accepting
|
|
the expression. The <code>req_novary</code> function can be used to
|
|
prevent names from being added to the Vary header.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>In addition to string-valued functions, there are also
|
|
list-valued functions which take one string as argument and return a
|
|
wordlist, i.e. a list of strings. The wordlist can be used with the
|
|
special <code>-in</code> operator. Functions names are not case
|
|
sensitive. Modules may register additional functions.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>There are no built-in list-valued functions. <code class="module"><a href="./mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>
|
|
provides <code>PeerExtList</code>. See the description of
|
|
<code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_ssl.html#sslrequire">SSLRequire</a></code> for details
|
|
(but <code>PeerExtList</code> is also usable outside
|
|
of <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_ssl.html#sslrequire">SSLRequire</a></code>).</p>
