vmod-parseform

Parse to POST request

Author:Shohei Tanaka(@xcir)
Date:2019-03-20
Version:62.6
Support Varnish Version:6.2.x
Manual section:3

SYNOPSIS

import parseform;

For Varnish6.1.x

See this link. https://github.com/xcir/libvmod-parseform/tree/varnish61

DESCRIPTION

Get POST value

FUNCTIONS

get
Prototype
get(STRING key, STRING glue=", ", ENUM { raw, urlencode } encode="raw")
Return value
STRING
Description
Get POST value. If POST have multiple-key, join with glue. Only used in vcl_recv. Need to call std.cache_req_body before using this. Support content-type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" and "multipart/form-data" and "text/plain".
Attention
Does not care for binary, if set encode=raw. Output by percent encode, if set encode=urlencoded.
Example
import std;
import parseform;
sub vcl_recv{

    std.cache_req_body(1MB);
    if(parseform.get("postkey")){
        ...
    }
}
get_blob
Prototype
get_blob(STRING key, STRING glue=", ", BOOL decode=false)
Return value
BLOB
Description
Get POST value. If POST have multiple-key, join with glue. Only used in vcl_recv. Need to call std.cache_req_body before using this. Support content-type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" and "multipart/form-data" and "text/plain". Decode the value, if decode is true and content-type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded".
len
Prototype
len(STRING key, STRING glue=", ")
Return value
INT
Description
Get POST length. If POST have multiple-key, join with glue. Only used in vcl_recv. Need to call std.cache_req_body before using this. Support content-type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" and "multipart/form-data" and "text/plain".
Example
import std;
import parseform;
sub vcl_recv{

    std.cache_req_body(1MB);
    if(parseform.len("postkey") > 0){
        ...
    }
}
urlencode
Prototype
urlencode(STRING txt)
Return value
STRING
Description
Encoding to Percent encode
Example
import std;
import parseform;
sub vcl_recv{

    std.cache_req_body(1MB);
    if(parseform.urlencode("foo.bar.~-_baz") == parseform.get(key="postkey", encode=urlencoded)){
        ...
    }
}
urldecode
Prototype
urldecode(STRING txt)
Return value
STRING
Description
Decoding to Percent encode
Example
import std;
import parseform;
sub vcl_recv{

    std.cache_req_body(1MB);
    if(req.http.content-type == "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"){
      if("foo bar" == parseform.urldecode(parseform.get("postkey"))){
          ...
      }

    }
}
urlencode_blob
Prototype
urlencode_blob(BLOB blob)
Return value
STRING
urldecode_blob
Prototype
urldecode_blob(STRING txt)
Return value
BLOB

INSTALLATION

The source tree is based on autotools to configure the building, and does also have the necessary bits in place to do functional unit tests using the varnishtest tool.

Building requires the Varnish header files and uses pkg-config to find the necessary paths.

Usage:

./autogen.sh
./configure

If you have installed Varnish to a non-standard directory, call autogen.sh and configure with PKG_CONFIG_PATH pointing to the appropriate path. For instance, when varnishd configure was called with --prefix=$PREFIX, use

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=${PREFIX}/lib/pkgconfig
export ACLOCAL_PATH=${PREFIX}/share/aclocal

The module will inherit its prefix from Varnish, unless you specify a different --prefix when running the configure script for this module.

Make targets:

  • make - builds the vmod.
  • make install - installs your vmod.
  • make check - runs the unit tests in src/tests/*.vtc.
  • make distcheck - run check and prepare a tarball of the vmod.

If you build a dist tarball, you don't need any of the autotools or pkg-config. You can build the module simply by running:

./configure
make
Installation directories

By default, the vmod configure script installs the built vmod in the directory relevant to the prefix. The vmod installation directory can be overridden by passing the vmoddir variable to make install.

COMMON PROBLEMS

  • configure: error: Need varnish.m4 -- see README.rst

    Check whether PKG_CONFIG_PATH and ACLOCAL_PATH were set correctly before calling autogen.sh and configure

  • Incompatibilities with different Varnish Cache versions

    Make sure you build this vmod against its correspondent Varnish Cache version. For instance, to build against Varnish Cache 4.1, this vmod must be built from branch 4.1.
