| <summary> |
| |
| <p>The <module>mod_setenvif</module> module allows you to set |
| environment variables according to whether different aspects of |
| the request match regular expressions you specify. These |
| environment variables can be used by other parts of the server |
| to make decisions about actions to be taken.</p> |
| |
| <p>The directives are considered in the order they appear in |
| the configuration files. So more complex sequences can be used, |
| such as this example, which sets <code>netscape</code> if the |
| browser is mozilla but not MSIE.</p> |
| |
| <example> |
| BrowserMatch ^Mozilla netscape<br /> |
| BrowserMatch MSIE !netscape<br /> |
| </example> |

| <p>The <directive>BrowserMatchNoCase</directive> directive is |

| <description>Sets environment variables based on attributes of the request |
| </description> |
| <syntax>SetEnvIf <em>attribute |
| regex [!]env-variable</em>[=<em>value</em>] |
| [[!]<em>env-variable</em>[=<em>value</em>]] ...</syntax> |

| |
| <usage> |
| <p>The <directive>SetEnvIf</directive> directive defines |
| environment variables based on attributes of the request. The |
| <em>attribute</em> specified in the first argument can be one of three |
| things:</p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>An HTTP request header field (see <a |
| href="http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">RFC2616</a> |
| for more information about these); for example: <code>Host</code>, |
| <code>User-Agent</code>, <code>Referer</code>, and |
| <code>Accept-Language</code>. A regular expression may be |
| used to specify a set of request headers.</li> |
| |
| <li>One of the following aspects of the request: |
| <ul> |
| <li><code>Remote_Host</code> - the hostname (if available) of |
| the client making the request</li> |
| |
| <li><code>Remote_Addr</code> - the IP address of the client |
| making the request</li> |
| |
| <li><code>Server_Addr</code> - the IP address of the server |
| on which the request was received (only with versions later |
| than 2.0.43)</li> |
| |
| <li><code>Request_Method</code> - the name of the method |
| being used (<code>GET</code>, <code>POST</code>, <em>et |
| cetera</em>)</li> |
| |
| <li><code>Request_Protocol</code> - the name and version of |
| the protocol with which the request was made (<em>e.g.</em>, |
| "HTTP/0.9", "HTTP/1.1", <em>etc.</em>)</li> |
| |
| <li><code>Request_URI</code> - the resource requested on the HTTP |
| request line -- generally the portion of the URL |
| following the scheme and host portion without the query string</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li>The name of an environment variable in the list of those |
| associated with the request. This allows |
| <directive>SetEnvIf</directive> directives to test against the result |
| of prior matches. Only those environment variables defined by earlier |
| <code>SetEnvIf[NoCase]</code> directives are available for testing in |
| this manner. 'Earlier' means that they were defined at a broader scope |
| (such as server-wide) or previously in the current directive's scope. |
| Environment variables will be considered only if there was no match |
| among request characteristics and a regular expression was not |
| used for the <em>attribute</em>.</li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p>The second argument (<em>regex</em>) is a <a |
| href="http://www.pcre.org/">Perl compatible regular expression</a>. |
| This is similar to a POSIX.2 egrep-style regular expression. |
| If the <em>regex</em> matches against the <em>attribute</em>, |
| then the remainder of the arguments are evaluated.</p> |
| |
| <p>The rest of the arguments give the names of variables to set, and |
| optionally values to which they should be set. These take the form |
| of</p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li><code><em>varname</em></code>, or</li> |
| |
| <li><code>!<em>varname</em></code>, or</li> |
| |
| <li><code><em>varname</em>=<em>value</em></code></li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p>In the first form, the value will be set to "1". The second |
| will remove the given variable if already defined, and the |
| third will set the variable to the literal value given by |
| <code><em>value</em></code>. Since version 2.1 Apache will |
| recognize occurrences of <code>$1</code>..<code>$9</code> within |
| <var>value</var> and replace them by parenthesized subexpressions |
| of <var>regex</var>.</p> |
| |
| <example> |
| <title>Example:</title> |
| SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.gif$" object_is_image=gif<br /> |
| SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.jpg$" object_is_image=jpg<br /> |
| SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.xbm$" object_is_image=xbm<br /> |
| :<br /> |
| SetEnvIf Referer www\.mydomain\.com intra_site_referral<br /> |
| :<br /> |
| SetEnvIf object_is_image xbm XBIT_PROCESSING=1<br /> |
| :<br /> |
| SetEnvIf ^TS* ^[a-z].* HAVE_TS<br /> |
| </example> |
| |
| <p>The first three will set the environment variable |
| <code>object_is_image</code> if the request was for an image |
| file, and the fourth sets <code>intra_site_referral</code> if |
| the referring page was somewhere on the |
| <code>www.mydomain.com</code> Web site.</p> |
| |
| <p>The last example will set environment variable |
| <code>HAVE_TS</code> if the request contains any headers that |
| begin with "TS" whose values begins with any character in the |
| set [a-z].</p> |

| <usage> |
| |
| <p>The <directive>SetEnvIfNoCase</directive> is semantically identical to |
| the <directive module="mod_setenvif">SetEnvIf</directive> directive, |
| and differs only in that the regular expression matching is |
| performed in a case-insensitive manner. For example:</p> |
| <example> |
| SetEnvIfNoCase Host Apache\.Org site=apache |
| </example> |
| |
| <p>This will cause the <code>site</code> environment variable |
| to be set to "<code>apache</code>" if the HTTP request header |
| field <code>Host:</code> was included and contained |
| <code>Apache.Org</code>, <code>apache.org</code>, or any other |
| combination.</p> |
