| <h3>Summary</h3> |
| |
| <p>This module has two directives. The <code class="directive"><a href="#action">Action</a></code> directive lets you run CGI |
| scripts whenever a file of a certain <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#mime-type" title="see glossary">MIME content type</a> is requested. The |
| <code class="directive"><a href="#script">Script</a></code> directive lets |
| you run CGI scripts whenever a particular method is used in a |
| request. This makes it much easier to execute scripts that process |
| files.</p> </div> |

| <p>This directive adds an action, which will activate |
| <var>cgi-script</var> when <var>action-type</var> is triggered by |
| the request. The <var>cgi-script</var> is the URL-path to a |
| resource that has been designated as a CGI script using <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias">ScriptAlias</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>. The |
| <var>action-type</var> can be either a <a href="../handler.html">handler</a> or a <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#mime-type" title="see glossary">MIME content type</a>. It sends the URL and |
| file path of the requested document using the standard CGI |
| <code>PATH_INFO</code> and <code>PATH_TRANSLATED</code> |
| environment variables. The handler used for the particular request |
| is passed using the <code>REDIRECT_HANDLER</code> variable.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Example: MIME type</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config"># Requests for files of a particular MIME content type: |
| Action image/gif /cgi-bin/images.cgi</pre> |
| </div> |
| |
| <p>In this example, requests for files with a MIME content |
| type of <code>image/gif</code> will be handled by the |
| specified cgi script <code>/cgi-bin/images.cgi</code>.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Example: File extension</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config"># Files of a particular file extension |
| AddHandler my-file-type .xyz |
| Action my-file-type "/cgi-bin/program.cgi"</pre> |
| </div> |
| <p>In this example, requests for files with a file extension of |
| <code>.xyz</code> are handled by the specified cgi script |
| <code>/cgi-bin/program.cgi</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>The optional <code>virtual</code> modifier turns off the check |
| whether the requested file really exists. This is useful, for example, |
| if you want to use the <code class="directive">Action</code> directive in |
| virtual locations.</p> |
| |
| <pre class="prettyprint lang-config"><Location "/news"> |
| SetHandler news-handler |
| Action news-handler "/cgi-bin/news.cgi" virtual |
| </Location></pre> |

| <p>This directive adds an action, which will activate |
| <var>cgi-script</var> when a file is requested using the method of |
| <var>method</var>. The <var>cgi-script</var> is the URL-path to a |
| resource that has been designated as a CGI script using <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias">ScriptAlias</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>. The URL and |
| file path of the requested document is sent using the standard CGI |
| <code>PATH_INFO</code> and <code>PATH_TRANSLATED</code> environment |
| variables.</p> |
| |
| <div class="note"> |
| Any arbitrary method name may be used. <strong>Method names are |
| case-sensitive</strong>, so <code>Script PUT</code> and |
| <code>Script put</code> have two entirely different |
| effects. |
| </div> |
| |
| <p>Note that the <code class="directive">Script</code> command defines default |
| actions only. If a CGI script is called, or some other resource that is |
| capable of handling the requested method internally, it will do |
| so. Also note that <code class="directive">Script</code> with a method of |
| <code>GET</code> will only be called if there are query arguments present |
| (<em>e.g.</em>, foo.html?hi). Otherwise, the request will |
| proceed normally.</p> |
| |
| <pre class="prettyprint lang-config"># All GET requests go here |
| Script GET "/cgi-bin/search" |
| |
| # A CGI PUT handler |
| Script PUT "/~bob/put.cgi"</pre> |
