Apache Module mod_actions

Description:This module provides for executing CGI scripts based on media type or request method.
Status:Base
Module Identifier:actions_module
Source File:mod_actions.c

Summary

This module has two directives. The Action directive lets you run CGI scripts whenever a file of a certain type is requested. The Script directive lets you run CGI scripts whenever a particular method is used in a request. This makes it much easier to execute scripts that process files.

Action Directive

Description:Activates a CGI script for a particular handler or content-type
Syntax:Action action-type cgi-script
Context:server config, virtual host, directory, .htaccess
Override:FileInfo
Status:Base
Module:mod_actions

This directive adds an action, which will activate cgi-script when action-type is triggered by the request. The cgi-script is the URL-path to a resource that has been designated as a CGI script using ScriptAlias or AddHandler. The action-type can be either a handler or a MIME content type. It sends the URL and file path of the requested document using the standard CGI PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED environment variables.

Examples

# Requests for files of a particular type:
Action image/gif /cgi-bin/images.cgi

# Files of a particular file extension
AddHandler my-file-type .xyz
Action my-file-type /cgi-bin/program.cgi

In the first example, requests for files with a MIME content type of image/gif will instead be handled by the specified cgi script /cgi-bin/images.cgi.

In the second example, requests for files with a file extension of .xyz are handled instead by the specified cgi script /cgi-bin/program.cgi.

Script Directive

Description:Activates a CGI script for a particular request method.
Syntax:Script method cgi-script
Context:server config, virtual host, directory
Status:Base
Module:mod_actions

This directive adds an action, which will activate cgi-script when a file is requested using the method of method. The cgi-script is the URL-path to a resource that has been designated as a CGI script using ScriptAlias or AddHandler. The URL and file path of the requested document is sent using the standard CGI PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED environment variables.

Any arbitrary method name may be used. Method names are case-sensitive, so Script PUT and Script put have two entirely different effects.

Note that the Script command defines default actions only. If a CGI script is called, or some other resource that is capable of handling the requested method internally, it will do so. Also note that Script with a method of GET will only be called if there are query arguments present (e.g., foo.html?hi). Otherwise, the request will proceed normally.

Examples

# For <ISINDEX>-style searching
Script GET /cgi-bin/search

# A CGI PUT handler
Script PUT /~bob/put.cgi
