NAME

SYNOPSIS

9        url_lfs_rewrite [--debug] --local-dir=/var/www/ [options]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Direct all request to files who are in a local directory to a local web
13       server hosting this directory.
14
15       This program uses Squid concurrency support.
16

OPTIONS

18       --debug     Write debug info to stderr.
19
20       --local-dir Directory path under which the scripts searches for files.
21
22       --to-scheme Scheme to use for the redirected URL.
23
24                    Default: http
25
26       --to-host   Domain name to use for the redirected URL.
27
28                    Default: localhost
29
30       --to-path   URL path to add as prefix for the redirected URL path.
31
32                   If set it must end with a '/'.
33
34                    Default: use the original URL path.
35

KNOWN ISSUES

37       * The --local-dir parameter must end with a '/'. Otherwise no
38         file paths will be found.
39
40       * URL with no filename in the path can match directories on the local
41         filesystem and be wrongly redirected to the local web server.
42
43       * Any scheme name accepted by the Perl URL library can be used
44         as the --to-scheme parameter. However only schemes supported by
45         Squid will work.
46
47       * URL containing query-string are not handled well and will not
48         be rewritten even if the base script or file exists on the local
49         system.

CONFIGURATION

52         url_rewrite_program /path/to/url_lfs_rewrite --local-dir=\var\www\localhost
53         url_rewrite_children 20 startup=1 idle=1 concurrency=25
54         url_rewrite_access deny CONNECT
55         url_rewrite_access deny to_localhost
56
57       This helper can redirect to any web server but only does so if there is
58       a file matching the URL path segment in the local filesystem. Normal
59       configuration requires a web server running on localhost serving up
60       files from a local disk (eg. \var\www\localhost). Configuration of that
61       web server is not covered here.
