+ esi:vars
+ esi:choose
+ esi:when

+
+Note: the name is the key name such as "username", "id" etc. For cookie support sub-name or sub-key, the format is:
+name;subkey, such as "l;u", "l;t" etc. e.g. such cookie string: l=u=test&t=1350952328, the value of
+$(HTTP_COOKIE{"l;u"}) is test and the value of $(HTTP_COOKIE{"l;t"}) is 1350952328
+
+Compile and Installation
+========================
+
+This plugin is only built if the configure option ::
+
+ --enable-experimental-plugins
+
+is given at build time. Note that this plugin is built and installed in combination with the ESI module, since they
+share common code.
+
+Enabling ESI
+============
+
+1. First we need to set up /usr/local/etc/trafficserver/plugin.config and make sure the following line is present.
+
+::
+
+ esi.so
+
+2. There are four options you can add to the above.
+
+- "--private-response" will add private cache control and expires header to the processed ESI document.
+- "--packed-node-support" will enable the support for using packed node, which will improve the performance of parsing
+ cached ESI document.
+- "--disable-gzip-output" will disable gzipped output, which will NOT gzip the output anyway.
+- "--first-byte-flush" will enable the first byte flush feature, which will flush content to users as soon as the entire
+ ESI document is received and parsed without all ESI includes fetched (the flushing will stop at the ESI include markup
+ till that include is fetched).
+
+3. We need a mapping for origin server response that contains the ESI markup. Assume that the ATS server is abc.com. And
+ your And your origin server is xyz.com and the response containing ESI markup is http://xyz.com/esi.php. We will need
+ the following line in /usr/local/etc/trafficserver/remap.config
+
+::
+
+ map http://abc.com/esi.php http://xyz.com/esi.php
+
+4. Your response should contain ESI markup and a response header of .X-Esi: 1'. e.g. using PHP,
+
+::
+
+ <?php header('X-Esi: 1'); ?>
+ <html>
+ <body>
+ Hello, <esi:include src="http://abc.com/date.php"/>
+ </body>
+ </html>
+
+5. You will need a mapping for the src of the ESI include in remap.config if it is not already present.
+
+::
+
+ map http://abc.com/date.php http://xyz.com/date.php
+
+Or if both your ESI response and the ESI include comes from the same origin server, you can have the following line in
+remap.config instead to replace separate map rules for date.php and esi.php
+
+::
+
+ map http://abc.com/ http://xyz.com/
+
+6. Here is a sample PHP for date.php
+
+::
+
+ <?php
+ header ("Cache-control: no-cache");
+ echo date('l jS \of F Y h:i:s A');
+ ?>
+
+Useful Note
+===========
+
+1. You can provide proper cache control header and the ESI response and ESI include response can be cached separately.
+It is extremely useful for rendering page with multiple modules. The page layout can be a ESI response with multiple ESI
+include, each for different module. The page layour ESI response can be cached and each individual ESI include can also
+be cached with different duration.
+
+2. You might want to compile the code without using ESI_PACKED_NODE_SUPPORT because it may not work in some corner cases
+
+Differences from Spec - http://www.w3.org/TR/esi-lang
+=====================================================
+
+1. <esi:include> does not support "alt" and "onerror" attributes
+
+2. <esi:inline> is not supported
+
+3. You cannot have <esi:try> inside another <esi:try>
+
+4. HTTP_USER_AGENT variable is not supported
+
+5. HTTP_COOKIE supports fetching for sub-key
