Assume i have a handler that sits in a location, and that handler has
it's own admin interface built in. I also want to be able to easily
change the directory that the handler is running in, or have it running
in multiple locations (so i don't want to hardcode the location into
the script.
So my .conf looks like this.
<Location /crap> SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Something::Crap
</Location>
<Location /crap/admin> AuthName "Something" AuthType Crap
PerlAuthenHandler Something::Authen PerlAuthzHandler Something::Authz
require valid-user </Location>
The only annoying thing about this is that $r->location will return
'/crap/admin/' when i'm on the admin part of the site. Is there any
way to get the actual location that the PerlHandler is running in
despite the fact i'm using Authen and Authz handlers in /crap/admin/?
/crap/admin/ *is* the actual location.
Right now i just parse the /admin out of the location() myself, but
that's kind of annoying. I haven't tried resetting the location though
(like $r->location($newlocation)) but i'm not sure if that will work
offhand.
Is there a better way to do this kind of thing?
sure: write a fixup handler which will set $r->location to whatever you want:
