Local File Access

[Jason Strongman <ja...@gmail.com>]

Outside of building a plug-in, does ATS have a native facility which allows
for reading local system files? I have a file residing in my system log
directory that I want to access via ATS.

I was thinking something along the lines of the below remap rule, although
I tried and didnt seem to work.

        map http://mydomain.com/file.log file:///var/log/file.log


If using the header rewrite plugin,  not sure how I could expand the
conditional access rule to expose local files either.

Setting a specific body_factory directory against my map rule partially
works, although I have to reload ATS each time for my updated logs to be
read.

Hi-
I think you may be able to use the experimental plugin 'healthchecks' for this:
