One character per brigade?

[Tess Flynn <tf...@mqsoftware.com>]

I'm (desparately!) trying to write a filter module that gathers statistical data from both the request and the reply. I'm wrting it as an input filter for the request, and an output filter for the reply. I do *not* need associate the requests with the replies. I need the entire request (POST content) and the entire reply body in order to do what I need.

So far I've written a pair of functions that allocate a ctx and create an empty brigade for a buffer. Now I need to copy or move the data from the input brigades to my buffer brigade. How do I do this?

It also seems that I'm only getting one character per *brigade*, and multiple brigades for each request. How am I supposed to tell when I've read the last brigade?

Thanks!

Take a look at mod_diagnostics, which reports on exactly the data
you're looking for, and might be a good startingpoint for your module.

If you're just examining the data but not modifying it, you don't
want to mess about with new brigades.

The last bucket is an EOS bucket.
