Apache2::Util - Perl API for Misc Apache Utility functions
use Apache2::Util (); # OS escape path $escaped_path = Apache2::Util::escape_path($path, "a 'long' file.html"); # format time as a string my $fmt = "%a, %D %H:%M:%S %Z"; $fmtdate = Apache2::Util::ht_time($r->pool, $r->request_time, $fmt, 0);
Various Apache utilities that don't fit into any other group.
Apache2::Util provides the following functions and/or methods:
Apache2::Util
escape_path
convert an OS path to a URL in an OS dependant way.
$escaped_path = Apache2::Util::escape_path($path, $p); $escaped_path = Apache2::Util::escape_path($path, $p, $partial);
$path
The path to convert
$p
APR::Pool
The pool to allocate from
$partial
if TRUE, assume that the path will be appended to something with a '/' in it (and thus does not prefix "./")
if FALSE it prepends "./" unless $path contains : optionally followed by /.
"./"
:
/
the default is TRUE
$escaped_path
The escaped path
ht_time
Convert time from an integer value into a string in a specified format
$time_str = Apache2::Util::ht_time($p); $time_str = Apache2::Util::ht_time($p, $time); $time_str = Apache2::Util::ht_time($p, $time, $fmt); $time_str = Apache2::Util::ht_time($p, $time, $fmt, $gmt);
APR::Pool object
The pool to allocate memory from
$time
The time to convert (e.g., time() or $r->request_time).
time()
$r->request_time
If the value is not passed the current time will be used.
$fmt
The format to use for the conversion, using strftime(3) tokens.
If the value is not passed the default format used is:
"%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %Z"
$gmt
The time will be not converted to GMT if FALSE is passed.
If the value is not passed TRUE (do convert) is used as a default.
$time_str
The string that represents the specified time
Examples:
Use current time, the default format and convert to GMT:
$fmtdate = Apache2::Util::ht_time($r->pool);
Use my time, the default format and convert to GMT:
my $time = time+100; $fmtdate = Apache2::Util::ht_time($r->pool, $time);
Use the time the request has started, custom format and don't convert to GMT:
my $fmt = "%a, %D %H:%M:%S %Z"; $fmtdate = Apache2::Util::ht_time($r->pool, $r->request_time, $fmt, 0);
