<h2><a name="introduction" id="introduction">Introduction</a></h2>
<h3><a name="what" id="what">What we will be discussing in this document</a></h3>
<p>
This document will discuss how you can easily create modules for the Apache HTTP Server 2.4 ("Apache"),
by exploring an example module called <code>mod_example</code>. In the first part of this document, the purpose of this
module will be to calculate and print out various digest values for existing files on your web server, whenever we
access the URL <code>http://hostname/filename.sum</code>. For instance, if we want to know the MD5 digest value of the file
located at <code>http://www.example.com/index.html</code>, we would visit <code>http://www.example.com/index.html.sum</code>.
</p>
<p>
In the second part of this document, which deals with configuration directive and context awareness, we will be looking at
a module that simply write out its own configuration to the client.
</p>
<h3><a name="prerequisites" id="prerequisites">Prerequisites</a></h3>
<p>
First and foremost, you are expected to have a basic knowledge of how the C programming language works. In most cases,
we will try to be as pedagogical as possible and link to documents describing the functions used in the examples,
but there are also many cases where it is necessary to either just assume that "it works" or do some digging youself
into what the hows and whys of various function calls.
</p>
<p>
Lastly, you will need to have a basic understanding of how modules are loaded and configured in Apache, as well as
how to get the headers for Apache if you do not have them already, as these are needed for compiling new modules.
</p>
<h3><a name="compiling" id="compiling">Compiling your module</a></h3>
<p>
To compile the source code we are building in this document, we will be using <a href="/programs/apxs.html">APXS</a>.
Assuming your source file is called mod_example.c, compiling, installing and activating the module is as simple as:
<div class="example"><pre>
apxs -i -a -c mod_example.c
</pre></div>
</p>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="basics" id="basics">Defining a module</a></h2>
<p>Every module starts with the same declaration, or name tag if you will, that defines a module as <em>a separate entity within Apache</em>:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA example_module <code style="color:#806030; ">=</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">{</code>
STANDARD20_MODULE_STUFF<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code>
create_dir_conf<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Per-directory configuration handler */</code>
merge_dir_conf<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Merge handler for per-directory configurations */</code>
create_svr_conf<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Per-server configuration handler */</code>
merge_svr_conf<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Merge handler for per-server configurations */</code>
directives<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Any directives we may have for httpd */</code>
register_hooks <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Our hook registering function */</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">}</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
</pre>
This bit of code lets Apache know that we have now registered a new module in the system,
and that its name is <code>example_module</code>. The name of the module is used primarilly
for two things:<br />
<ul>
<li>Letting Apache know how to load the module using the LoadModule</li>
<li>Setting up a namespace for the module to use in configurations</li>
</ul>
For now, we're only concerned with the first purpose of the module name,
which comes into play when we need to load the module:<br />
<div class="example"><pre><a href="/mod/mod_so.html#LoadModule">LoadModule</a> example_module modules/mod_example.so</pre></div>
called <code>example_module</code>.
</p>
<p>
Within this name tag of ours is also a bunch of references to how we would like to handle things:
Which directives do we respond to in a configuration file or .htaccess, how do we operate
within specific contexts, and what handlers are we interested in registering with the Apache
service. We'll return to all these elements later in this document.
</p>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="hooking" id="hooking">Getting started: Hooking into Apache</a></h2>
<h3><a name="hook_intro" id="hook_intro">An introduction to hooks</a></h3>
<p>
When handling requests in Apache, the first thing you will need to do is create a hook into
the request handling process. A hook is essentially a message telling Apache that you are
willing to either serve or at least take a glance at certain requests given by clients. All
handlers, whether it's mod_rewrite, mod_authn_*, mod_proxy and so on, are hooked into specific
parts of the request process. As you are probably aware, modules serve different purposes; Some
are authentication/authorization handlers, others are file or script handlers while some third
modules rewrite URIs or proxies content. Furthermore, in the end, it is up to the user of Apache
how and when each module will come into place. Thus, Apache itself does not presume to know
which module is responsible for handling a specific request, and will ask each module whether
they have an interest in a given request or not. It is then up to each module to either gently
decline serving a request, accept serving it or flat out deny the request from being served,
To make it a bit easier for handlers such as our mod_example to know whether the client is
requesting content we should handle or not, Apache has directives for hinting to modules whether
their assistance is needed or not. Two of these are <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code> and <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#sethandler">SetHandler</a></code>.
Let's take a look at an example using <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>.
In our example case, we want every request ending with .sum to be served by <code>mod_example</code>,
so we'll add a configuration directive that tells Apache to do just that:
<div class="example"><pre>
AddHandler example-handler .sum
</pre></div>
What this tells Apache is the following: <em>Whenever we receive a request for a URI ending in .sum,
we are to let all modules know that we are looking for whoever goes by the name of "example-handler"
</em>. Thus, when a request is being served that ends in .sum, Apache will let all modules know, that
this request should be served by "example-handler". As you will see later, when we start
building mod_example, we will check for this handler tag relayed by <code>AddHandler</code> and
reply to Apache based on the value of this tag.
</p>
<h3><a name="hook_declaration" id="hook_declaration">Hooking into httpd</a></h3>
<p>
To begin with, we only want to create a simple handler, that replies to the client browser
when a specific URL is requested, so we won't bother setting up configuration handlers and
directives just yet. Our initial module definition will look like this:<br />
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA example_module =
{
STANDARD20_MODULE_STUFF,
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>,
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>,
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>,
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>,
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>,
<code style="color:#800040; ">register_hooks</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; "><code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Our hook registering function */</code></code>
};
</pre>
This lets Apache know that we are not interesting in anything fancy, we just want to hook onto
the requests and possibly handle some of them.
</p>
<p>
The reference in our example declaration, <code>register_hooks</code> is the name of a function
we will create to manage how we hook onto the request process. In this example module, the function
has just one purpose; To create a simple hook that gets called after all the rewrites, access
control etc has been handled. Thus, we will let Apache know, that we want to hook into its process
as one of the last modules:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">static</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">void</code> register_hooks<code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>apr_pool_t <code style="color:#806030; ">*</code>pool<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">{</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Create a hook in the request handler, so we get called when a request arrives */</code>
<code style="color:#800040; ">ap_hook_handler</code><code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>example_handler<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code><code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code><code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> APR_HOOK_LAST<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">}</code>
</pre>
The <code>example_handler</code> reference is the function that will handle the request. We will
discuss how to create a handler in the next chapter.
</p>
<h3><a name="hook_others" id="hook_others">Other useful hooks</a></h3>
<p>
Hooking into the request handling phase is but one of many hooks that you can create. Some other ways of hooking are:
<ul>
<li><code>ap_hook_child_init</code>: Place a hook that executes when a child process is spawned (commonly used for initializing modules after Apache has forked)</li>
<li><code>ap_hook_pre_config</code>: Place a hook that executes before any configuration data has been read (very early hook)</li>
<li><code>ap_hook_post_config</code>: Place a hook that executes after configuration has been parsed, but before Apache has forked</li>
<li><code>ap_hook_translate_name</code>: Place a hook that executes when a URI needs to be translated into a filename on the server (think <code>mod_rewrite</code>)</li>
</ul>
</p>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="handling" id="handling">Building a handler</a></h2>
<p>
A handler is essentially a function that receives a callback when a request to Apache is made.
It is passed a record of the current request (how it was made, which headers and requests were
passed along, who's giving the request and so on), and is put in charge of either telling
Apache that it's not interested in the request or handle the request with the tools provided.
</p>
<h3><a name="simple_handler" id="simple_handler">A simple "Hello, world!" handler</a></h3>
Let's start off by making a very simple request handler that does the following: <br />
<ol>
<li>Check that this is a request that should be served by "example-handler"</li>
<li>Write "Hello, world!" back to the client browser</li>
<li>Let Apache know that we took care of this request and everything went fine</li>
</ol>
In C code, our example handler will now look like this:<br />
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">static</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">int</code> example_handler<code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>request_rec <code style="color:#806030; ">*</code>r<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">{</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* First off, we need to check if this is a call for the "example-handler" handler.</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; "> * If it is, we accept it and do our things, if not, we simply return DECLINED,</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; "> * and Apache will try somewhere else.</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; "> */</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">if</code> <code style="color:#806030; ">(</code><code style="color:#806030; ">!</code>r<code style="color:#806030; ">-</code><code style="color:#806030; ">></code><code style="color:#008833">handler</code> <code style="color:#806030; ">|</code><code style="color:#806030; ">|</code> <code style="color:#800040; ">strcmp</code><code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>r<code style="color:#806030; ">-</code><code style="color:#806030; ">></code><code style="color:#008833">handler</code><code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#800000; ">"</code><code style="color:#e60000; ">example-handler</code><code style="color:#800000; ">"</code><code style="color:#806030; ">)</code><code style="color:#806030; ">)</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">return</code> <code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>DECLINED<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Now that we are handling this request, we'll write out "Hello, world!" to the client.</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; "> * To do so, we must first set the appropriate content type, followed by our output.</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; "> */</code>

<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">return</code> OK<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">}</code>
</pre>
Now, we put all we have learned together and end up with a program that looks like <a href="mod_example_1.c">
mod_example_1.c</a>. The functions used in this example will be explained later in the section
<a href="#functions">"Some useful functions you should know"</a>.
<h3><a name="request_rec" id="request_rec">The request_rec structure</a></h3>
<p>The most essential part of any request is the <em>request record</em>. In a call to a handler function, this
is represented by the <code>request_req*</code> structure passed along with every call that is made. This
struct, typically just refered to as <code>r</code> in modules, contains all the information you need for
your module to fully process any HTTP request and respond accordingly.</p>
<p>Some key elements of the <code>request_req</code> structure are:
<ul>
<li><code><code style="color:#008833">r->handler</code> (char*)</code>: Contains the name of the handler Apache is currently asking to do the handling of this request</li>
<li><code><code style="color:#008833">r->method</code> (char*)</code>: Contains the HTTP method being used, f.x. GET or POST</li>
<li><code><code style="color:#008833">r->filename</code> (char*)</code>: Contains the translated filename the client is requesting</li>
<li><code><code style="color:#008833">r->args</code> (char*)</code>: Contains the query string of the request, if any</li>
<li><code><code style="color:#008833">r->headers_in</code> (apr_table_t*)</code>: Contains all the headers sent by the client</li>
<li><code><code style="color:#008833">r->connection</code> (conn_rec*)</code>: A record containing information about the current connection</li>
<li><code><code style="color:#008833">r->useragent_ip</code> (char*)</code>: The IP address of the client connecting to us</li>
<li><code><code style="color:#008833">r->pool</code> (apr_pool_t*)</code>: The memory pool of this request. We'll discuss this in the "
<a href="#memory">Memory management</a>" chapter.</li>
</ul>
A complete list of all the values contained with in the <code>request_req</code> structure can be found in
the <a href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/include/httpd.h"><code>httpd.h</code></a> header
file or at <a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/structrequest__rec.html">http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/structrequest__rec.html</a>.
</p>
<p>
Let's try out some of these variables in another example handler:<br />

<h3><a name="return_value" id="return_value">Return values</a></h3>
<p>
Apache relies on return values from handlers to signify whether a request was handled or not,
and if so, whether the request went well or not. If a module is not interested in handling
a specific request, it should always return the value <code>DECLINED</code>. If it is handling
a request, it should either return the generic value <code>OK</code>, or a specific HTTP status
code, for example:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">static</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">int</code> example_handler<code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>request_rec <code style="color:#806030; ">*</code>r<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">{</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Return 404: Not found */</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">return</code> HTTP_NOT_FOUND<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">}</code>
</pre>
Returning <code>OK</code> or a HTTP status code does not necessarilly mean that the request will end. Apache
may still have other handlers that are interested in this request, for instance the logging modules
which, upon a successful request, will write down a summary of what was requested and how it went.
To do a full stop and prevent any further processing after your module is done, you can return the
value <code>DONE</code> to let Apache know that it should cease all activity on this request and
carry on with the next, without informing other handlers.
<br />
<strong>General response codes:</strong>
<ul>
<li><code>DECLINED</code>: We are not handling this request</li>
<li><code>OK</code>: We handled this request and it went well</li>
<li><code>DONE</code>: We handled this request and Apache should just close this thread without further processing</li>
</ul><br />
<strong>HTTP specific return codes (excerpt):</strong>
<ul>
<li><code>HTTP_OK (200)</code>: Request was okay</li>
<li><code>HTTP_MOVED_PERMANENTLY (301)</code>: The resource has moved to a new URL</li>
<li><code>HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED (401)</code>: Client is not authorized to visit this page</li>
<li><code>HTTP_FORBIDDEN (403)</code>: Permission denied</li>
<li><code>HTTP_NOT_FOUND (404)</code>: File not found</li>
<li><code>HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR (500)</code>: Internal server error (self explanatory)</li>
</ul>

<h3><a name="memory" id="memory">Memory management</a></h3>
<p>
Managing your resources in Apache is quite easy, thanks to the memory pool system. In essence,
each server, connection and request have their own memory pool that gets cleaned up when its
scope ends, e.g. when a request is done or when a server process shuts down. All your module
needs to do is latch onto this memory pool, and you won't have to worry about having to clean
up after yourself - pretty neat, huh?</p>
<p>
In our module, we will primarilly be allocating memory for each request, so it's appropriate to
use the <code><code style="color:#008833">r->pool</code></code> reference when creating new objects. A few of the functions for
allocating memory within a pool are:
<ul>
<li><code>void* <a href="http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.4/group__apr__pools.html#ga85f1e193c31d109affda72f9a92c6915">apr_palloc</a>(
apr_pool_t *p, apr_size_t size)</code>: Allocates <code>size</code> number of bytes in the pool for you</li>
<li><code>void* <a href="http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.4/group__apr__pools.html#gaf61c098ad258069d64cdf8c0a9369f9e">apr_pcalloc</a>(
apr_pool_t *p, apr_size_t size)</code>: Allocates <code>size</code> number of bytes in the pool for you and sets all bytes to 0</li>
<li><code>char* <a href="http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.4/group__apr__strings.html#gabc79e99ff19abbd7cfd18308c5f85d47">apr_pstrdup</a>(
apr_pool_t *p, const char *s)</code>: Creates a duplicate of the string <code>s</code>. This is useful for copying constant values so you can edit them</li>
<li><code>char* <a href="http://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.4/group__apr__strings.html#ga3eca76b8d293c5c3f8021e45eda813d8">apr_psprintf</a>(
apr_pool_t *p, const char *fmt, ...)</code>: Similar to <code>sprintf</code>, except Apache supplies you with an appropriately allocated target variable</li>
</ul>
Let's put these functions into an example handler:<br />
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">

<code style="color:#806030; ">{</code>

<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Allocate space for 10 integer values and set them all to zero. */</code>

<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Create a copy of the 'original' variable that we can edit. */</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">char</code><code style="color:#806030; ">*</code> copy <code style="color:#806030; ">=</code> apr_pstrdup<code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>r<code style="color:#806030; ">-</code><code style="color:#806030; ">></code><code style="color:#008833">pool</code><code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> original<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">return</code> OK<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">}</code>
</pre>
This is all well and good for our module, which won't need any pre-initialized variables or structures.
However, if we wanted to initialize something early on, before the requests come rolling in, we could
simply add a call to a function in our <code>register_hooks</code> function to sort it out:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">static</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">void</code> register_hooks<code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>apr_pool_t <code style="color:#806030; ">*</code>pool<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">{</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Call a function that initializes some stuff */</code>
<code style="color:#800040; ">example_init_function</code><code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>pool<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Create a hook in the request handler, so we get called when a request arrives */</code>
<code style="color:#800040; ">ap_hook_handler</code><code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>example_handler<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code><code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code><code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> APR_HOOK_LAST<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">}</code>
</pre>
In this, pre-request initialization function, we would not be using the same pool as we did when
allocating resources for request-based functions. Instead, we would use the pool given to us by
Apache for allocating memory on a per-process based level.
</p>
<h3><a name="parsing" id="parsing">Parsing request data</a></h3>
<p>
In our example module, we would like to add a feature, that checks which type of digest, MD5 or SHA1
the client would like to see. This could be solved by adding a query string to the request. A query
string is typically comprised of several keys and values put together in a string, for instance
<code>valueA=yes&valueB=no&valueC=maybe</code>. It is up to the module itself to parse these
and get the data it requires. In our example, we'll be looking for a key called <code>digest</code>,
and if set to <code>md5</code>, we'll produce an MD5 digest, otherwise we'll produce a SHA1 digest.
</p>
<p>
Since the introduction of Apache 2.4, parsing request data from GET and POST requests have never
been easier. All we require to parse both GET and POST data is four simple lines:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__apr__tables.html#gad7ea82d6608a4a633fc3775694ab71e4">apr_table_t</a> *GET;
<a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/structapr__array__header__t.html">apr_array_header_t</a> *POST;
<a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__SCRIPT.html#gaed25877b529623a4d8f99f819ba1b7bd">ap_args_to_table</a>(r, &GET);
<a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__DAEMON.html#ga9d426b6382b49754d4f87c55f65af202">ap_parse_form_data</a>(r, <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, &POST, -1, 8192);
</pre>
In our specific example module, we're looking for the <code>digest</code> value from the query string,
which now resides inside a table called <code>GET</code>. To extract this value, we need only perform
a simple operation:<br />
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Get the "digest" key from the query string, if any. */</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">const</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">char</code><code style="color:#806030; "> *</code>digestType <code style="color:#806030; ">=</code> <a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__apr__tables.html#ga4db13e3915c6b9a3142b175d4c15d915">apr_table_get</a><code style="color:#806030; ">(</code>GET<code style="color:#806030; ">,</code> <code style="color:#800000; ">"</code><code style="color:#e60000; ">digest</code><code style="color:#800000; ">"</code><code style="color:#806030; ">)</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* If no key was returned, we will set a default value instead. */</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">if</code> <code style="color:#806030; ">(</code><code style="color:#806030; ">!</code>digestType<code style="color:#806030; ">)</code> digestType <code style="color:#806030; ">=</code> <code style="color:#800000; ">"</code><code style="color:#e60000; ">sha1</code><code style="color:#800000; ">"</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
</pre>
The structures used for the POST and GET data are not exactly the same, so if we were to fetch a value from
POST data instead of the query string, we would have to resort to a few more lines, as outlined in
<a href="#get_post">this example</a> in the last chapter of this document.
</p>
<h3><a name="advanced_handler" id="advanced_handler">Making an advanced handler</a></h3>

<h2><a name="configuration" id="configuration">Adding configuration options</a></h2>
<p>
In this next segment of this document, we will turn our eyes away from the digest module and create a new
example module, whose only function is to write out its own configuration. The purpose of this is to
examine how Apache works with configuration, and what happens when you start writing advanced configurations
for your modules.
</p>
<h3><a name="config_intro" id="config_intro">An introduction to configuration directives</a></h3>
If you are reading this, then you probably already know what a configuration directive is. Simply put,
a directive is a way of telling an individual module (or a set of modules) how to behave, such as these
directives control how <code>mod_rewrite</code> works:
<div class="example"><pre>
RewriteEngine On
</pre></div>
Each of these configuration directives are handled by a separate function, that parses the parameters given
and sets up a configuration accordingly.
<h3><a name="config_simple" id="config_simple">Making an example configuration</a></h3>
To begin with, we'll create a basic configuration in C-space:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">typedef</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">struct</code> <code style="color:#806030; ">{</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">int</code> enabled<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Enable or disable our module */</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">const</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">char</code> <code style="color:#806030; ">*</code>path<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Some path to...something */</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">int</code> typeOfAction<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code> <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* 1 means action A, 2 means action B and so on */</code>
<code style="color:#806030; ">}</code> example_config<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
</pre>
Now, let's put this into perspective by creating a very small module that just prints out a hard-coded
configuration. You'll notice that we use the <code>register_hooks</code> function for initializing the
configuration values to their defaults:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">

</pre>
So far so good. To access our new handler, we could add the following to our configuration:
<div class="example"><pre>
<Location /example>
SetHandler example-handler
</Location>
</pre></div>
When we visit, we'll see our current configuration being spit out by our module.
<h3><a name="register_directive" id="register_directive">Registering directives with Apache</a></h3>
What if we want to change our configuration, not by hard-coding new values into the module,
but by using either the httpd.conf file or possibly a .htaccess file? It's time to let Apache
know that we want this to be possible. To do so, we must first change our <em>name tag</em>
to include a reference to the configuration directives we want to register with Apache:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA example_module =
{
STANDARD20_MODULE_STUFF,
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Per-directory configuration handler */</code>
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Merge handler for per-directory configurations */</code>
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Per-server configuration handler */</code>
<code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Merge handler for per-server configurations */</code>
example_directives, <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Any directives we may have for httpd */</code>
register_hooks <code style="color:#c34e00; ">/* Our hook registering function */</code>
};
</pre>
This will tell Apache that we are now accepting directives from the configuration files, and that the
structure called <code>example_directives</code> holds information on what our directives are and how
they work. Since we have three different variables in our module configuration, we will add a structure
with three directives and a NULL at the end:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
static const command_rec example_directives[] =
{
<code style="color:#2e8800; "><a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__CONFIG.html#ga07c7d22ae17805e61204463326cf9c34">AP_INIT_TAKE1</a></code>("exampleEnabled", example_set_enabled, <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, RSRC_CONF, "Enable or disable mod_example"),
<code style="color:#2e8800; "><a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__CONFIG.html#ga07c7d22ae17805e61204463326cf9c34">AP_INIT_TAKE1</a></code>("examplePath", example_set_path, <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, RSRC_CONF, "The path to whatever"),
<code style="color:#2e8800; "><a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__CONFIG.html#gafaec43534fcf200f37d9fecbf9247c21">AP_INIT_TAKE2</a></code>("exampleAction", example_set_action, <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, RSRC_CONF, "Special action value!"),
{ <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code> }
};
</pre>
<p>
As you can see, each directive needs at least 5 parameters set:
<ol>
<li><code><a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__CONFIG.html#ga07c7d22ae17805e61204463326cf9c34">AP_INIT_TAKE1</a></code>: This is a macro that tells Apache that this directive takes one and only one argument.
If we required two arguments, we could use the macro <code><a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__CONFIG.html#gafaec43534fcf200f37d9fecbf9247c21">AP_INIT_TAKE2</a></code> and so on (refer to httpd_conf.h
for more macros).</li>
<li><code>exampleEnabled</code>: This is the name of our directive. More precisely, it is what the user must put in his/her
configuration in order to invoke a configuration change in our module.</li>
<li><code>example_set_enabled</code>: This is a reference to a C function that parses the directive and sets the configuration
accordingly. We will discuss how to make this in the following paragraph.</li>
<li><code>RSRC_CONF</code>: This tells Apache where the directive is permissable. We'll go into details on this value in the
later chapters, but for now, <code>RSRC_CONF</code> means that Apache will only accept these directives in a server context.</li>
<li><code>"Enable or disable...."</code>: This is simply a brief description of what the directive does.</li>
</ol>
(<em>The "missing" parameter in our definition, which is usually set to <code>NULL</code>, is an optional function that can be
run after the initial function to parse the arguments have been run. This is usually omitted, as the function for verifying
arguments might as well be used to set them.</em>)
</p>
<h3><a name="directive_handler" id="directive_handler">The directive handler function</a></h3>
<p>
Now that we've told Apache to expect some directives for our module, it's time to make a few functions for handling these. What
Apache reads in the configuration file(s) is text, and so naturally, what it passes along to our directive handler is one or
more strings, that we ourselves need to recognize and act upon. You'll notice, that since we set our <code>exampleAction</code>
directive to accept two arguments, its C function also has an additional parameter defined:<br />

</p>
<p>
In our httpd.conf file, we can now change the hard-coded configuration by adding a few lines:
<div class="example"><pre>
ExampleEnabled On
ExampleAction file allow
</pre></div>
And thus we apply the configuration, visit <code>/example</code> on our web site, and we see the configuration has
adapted to what we wrote in our configuration file.
</p>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="context" id="context">Context aware configurations</a></h2>
<h3><a name="context_intro" id="context_intro">Introduction to context aware configurations</a></h3>
<p>
In Apache, different URLs, virtual hosts, directories etc can have very different meanings
to the user of Apache, and thus different contexts within which modules must operate. For example,
let's assume you have this configuration set up for mod_rewrite:
<div class="example"><pre>
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1
</Directory>
RewriteRule ^foobar$ index.php?foobar=true
</Directory>
</pre></div>
In this example, you will have set up two different contexts for mod_rewrite:
<ol>
<li>Inside <code>/var/www</code>, all requests for <code>http://example.com</code> must go to <code>http://www.example.com</code></li>
<li>Inside <code>/var/www/sub</code>, all requests for <code>foobar</code> must go to <code>index.php?foobar=true</code></li>
</ol>
If mod_rewrite (or Apache for that matter) wasn't context aware, then these rewrite rules would just apply to every and any request made,
regardless of where and how they were made, but since the module can pull the context specific configuration straight from Apache, it
does not need to know itself, which of the directives are valid in this context, since Apache takes care of this.</p>
<p>
So how does a module get the specific configuration for the server, directory or location in question? It does so by making one simple call:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
example_config *config = (example_config*) <a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__CONFIG.html#ga1093a5908a384eacc929b028c79f2a02">ap_get_module_config</a>(<code style="color:#008833">r->per_dir_config</code>, &example_module);
</pre>
That's it! Of course, a whole lot goes on behind the scenes, which we will discuss in this chapter, starting with how
Apache came to know what our configuration looks like, and how it came to be set up as it is in the specific context.
</p>
<h3><a name="context_base" id="context_base">Our basic configuration setup</a></h3>
<p>In this chapter, we will be working with a slightly modified version of our previous
context structure. We will set a <code>context</code> variable that we can use to track
which context configuration is being used by Apache in various places:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">typedef</code> <code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">struct</code> <code style="color:#806030; ">{</code>

<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">char</code> path<code style="color:#806030; ">[</code><code style="color:#c00000; ">256</code><code style="color:#806030; ">]</code><code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
<code style="color:#400000; font-weight:bold; ">int</code> typeOfAction<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>

<code style="color:#806030; ">}</code> example_config<code style="color:#806030; ">;</code>
</pre>
</p>
<p>Our handler for requests will also be modified, yet still very simple:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">

<h3><a name="context_which" id="context_which">Choosing a context</a></h3>
<p>
Before we can start making our module context aware, we must first define, which contexts we will accept.
As we saw in the previous chapter, defining a directive required five elements be set:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">
<code style="color:#2e8800; "><a href="http://ci.apache.org/projects/httpd/trunk/doxygen/group__APACHE__CORE__CONFIG.html#ga07c7d22ae17805e61204463326cf9c34">AP_INIT_TAKE1</a></code>("exampleEnabled", example_set_enabled, <code style="color:#7f0055; font-weight:bold; ">NULL</code>, RSRC_CONF, "Enable or disable mod_example"),
</pre>
The <code>RSRC_CONF</code> definition told Apache that we would only allow this directive in a global server context, but
since we are now trying out a context aware version of our module, we should set this to something more lenient, namely
the value <code>ACCESS_CONF</code>, which lets us use the directive inside <Directory> and <Location> blocks.
</p>
<h3><a name="context_pool" id="context_pool">Using Apache to allocate configuration slots</a></h3>
<p> A much smarter way to manage your configurations is by letting Apache help you create them.
To do so, we must first start off by chancing our <em>name tag</em> to let Apache know, that
it should assist us in creating and managing our configurations. Since we have chosen the per-directory
(or per-location) context for our module configurations, we'll add a per-directory creator and merger
function reference in our tag:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">

</pre>
</p>
<h3><a name="context_which" id="context_which">Creating new context configurations</a></h3>
<p>
Now that we have told Apache to help us create and manage configurations, our first step is to
make a function for creating new, blank configurations. We do so by creating the function we just
referenced in our name tag as the Per-directory configuration handler:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">

</pre>
</p>
<h3><a name="context_which" id="context_which">Merging configurations</a></h3>
<p>
Our next step in creating a context aware configuration is merging configurations. This part of the process
particularly apply to scenarios where you have a parent configuration and a child, such as the following:
<div class="example"><pre>
ExampleEnable On
ExampleAction file allow
</Directory>
ExampleAction file deny
</Directory>
</pre></div>
In this example, it is natural to assume that the directory <code>/var/www/subdir</code> should inherit the
value set for the <code>/var/www</code> directory, as we did not specify a <code>ExampleEnable</code> nor an
<code>ExamplePath</code> for this directory. Apache does not presume to know if this is true, but cleverly
does the following:
<ol>
<li>Sets the configuration values according to the directives given for <code>/var/www/subdir</code></li>
<li><strong>Proposes a merge</strong> of the two configurations into a new configuration for <code>/var/www/subdir</code></li>
</ol>
This proposal is handled by the <code>merge_dir_conf</code> function we referenced in our name tag. The purpose of
this function is to assess the two configurations and decide how they are to be merged:
<pre style="color:#000000;background:#ffffef;border: 1px dashed #333; padding: 0.5em; margin: 1em 2em 1em 1em;">

</p>
<h3><a name="context_which" id="context_which">Trying out our new context aware configurations</a></h3>
<p>
Now, let's try putting it all together to create a new module that it context aware. First off, we'll
create a configuration that lets us test how the module works:
<div class="example"><pre>
<Location "/a">
SetHandler example-handler
ExampleEnabled on
ExampleAction file allow
</Location>
<Location "/a/b">
ExampleAction file deny
ExampleEnabled off
</Location>
<Location "/a/b/c">
ExampleAction db deny
ExampleEnabled on
</Location>
</pre></div>
Then we'll assemble our module code. Note, that since we are now using our name tag as reference when fetching
configurations in our handler, I have added some prototypes to keep the compiler happy:

We have now looked at how to create simple modules for Apache and configuring them. What you do next is entirely up
to you, but it is my hope that something valuable has come out of reading this documentation. If you have questions
on how to further develop modules, you are welcome to join our <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/lists.html">mailing lists</a>
or check out the rest of our documentation for further tips.
