mp2 - setting Location handler in code
I'm trying to alter the Apache configuration from within a module, in
code. Ideally, instead of having a number of these sections in a config
file:
<Location /sl/foo>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler SL::Foo
</Location>
I'd like to have code:
set_response_handler( Location => '/sl/foo', PerlResponseHandler =>
'SL::Foo' );
or similar.
I've checked the documentation and searched, but nothing seems to
demonstrate how to do this. The documentation for Apache::Directive and
Apache::CmdParm is woefully incomplete. :)
It's OK if any particular solution requires execution at startup time,
as I don't plan on registering any new location response handlers at
runtime.
Thanks,
y

If replying to the list is the expected protocol, then the mailing list
should be configured with the appropriate reply-to.

please always reply back to the list. Thanks.
You want to use <Perl> sections for that purpose.

There are tons of examples in the documentation. Nothing has changed in this
respect from mp1, so all the existing mp1 docs and books still apply. And mp2
docs document that pretty well. You must have missed this chapter:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/http.html
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/http.html#PerlTypeHandler
$r->handler('perl-script');
$r->set_handlers(PerlResponseHandler => \&handler);
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/http.html#PerlFixupHandler
assuming that all you do is sending a response in the response handler, any
phase before PerlResponseHandler will do. Otherwise the most suitable place
for this kind of operation is in the trans phase:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/http.html#PerlTransHandler
and finally the API docs:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache/RequestUtil.html#C_set_handlers_
