VERSION

version v0.0.1

SYNOPSIS

  use Plack::Bulder;
  use Plack::Middleware::PathTuQuery;
  
  my $app = sub { ... };
  builder {
    enable 'PathToQuery', 'debug' => 1;
    $app;
  };

DESCRIPTION

Plack::Midleware::PathToQuery is a Plack middleware to prepend converted PATH_INFO to QUERY_STRING. The conversion rule is as follows:

• Initial '/' character is stripped if exists.

• '/' is converted to '&'.

• The first '-' for each path component is converted to '='.

• If '-' does not appear in a path component, '=' is appended.

Thus,

  /key1-value1/key2/key3-value3-value4

is converted to

  key1=value&key2=&key3=value3-value4

The converted string is prepended to QUERY_STRING. If QUERY_STRING is not empty, '&' is inserted between them. After the process of this middleware, PATH_INFO becomes empty.

If debug => 1 is specifed as argument, PATH_INFO/QUERY_STRING before/after the conversion are shown.
