NAME

Perlbal::Plugin::Addheader - Add Headers to Perlbal webserver/reverse_proxy responses

VERSION

Version 0.01

Description

This module allows you to add/change headers to/from perlbal responses.

You can configure headers to be added/changed based on each service declared, although the service role has to be set to web_server or reverse_proxy.

For each header you want to add/change, you have to specify the header content, this header content can be a set of characters or Perl code that will be evaluated for each response.

SYNOPSIS

This module provides a Perlbal plugin wich can be loaded and used as follows

    Load Addheader

    #ADDHEADER <service_name> <header_name> <header_content>
    ADDHEADER static Server This is My Webserver
    
    CREATE SERVICE static
        SET ROLE = web_server
        SET docroot /server/static
        SET plugins = Addheader
    ENABLE static

In this case for each response served by the Service static, the header Server will be changed to This is my Webserver.

In cases where you need a dynamic value to be server as header content, you can put Perl code as the header content, surrounding the header content with [% and %].

    ADDHEADER static Expires [% {use HTTP::Date;HTTP::Date::time2str(time() + 2592000)} %]

In this case, for each response, the header Expires will be added, ant the content will be the time in exactly 30 days from the time the response has been sent .
