NAME
Apache::StickyQuery - rewrites links using sticky query
SYNOPSIS
# in httpd.conf
<Location /stickyquery>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::StickyQuery
</Location>
# filter aware
PerlModule Apache::StickyQuery
SetHandler perl-script
PerlSetVar Filter On
PerlHandler Apache::RegistryFilter Apache::StickyQuery Apache::Compress
DESCRIPTION
Suppose page transactions like this:
foo.cgi => bar.html => baz.cgi
?sid=0123456 ?sid=0123456
It is difficult to keep sid query parameter between two cgis without cookies (or mod_rewrite hacks).
Apache::StickyQuery is a filter that rewrites all links in HTML file using "sticky query". It would be useful in keeping state (ie. like Session IDs) without using Cookies. See HTML::StickyQuery for details.
This module is Filter aware, meaning that it can work within Apache::Filter framework without modification.
CONFIGURATION
StickyQuery parameters are automatically retrieved via current query string. Options to change this is one of TODOs. (Hint: inherit from Apache::StickyQuery and override retrieve_param
)
Apache::StickyQuery has the following configuration variables.
PerlSetVar StickyQueryAbs 0
PerlSetVar StickyQueryOverride 1
PerlSetVar StickyQueryRegexp ^/cgi-bin/
each of which corresponds to those of HTML::StickyQuery. See HTML::StickyQuery for details.
