# Apache模块 mod_example | [说明](#calibre_link-11) | 一个很简单的Apache模块API演示模块 | | --- | --- | | [状态](#calibre_link-12) | 实验(X) | | [模块名](#calibre_link-13) | example_module | | [源文件](#calibre_link-14) | mod_example.c | ### 概述 Some files in the `modules/experimental` directory under the Apache distribution directory tree are provided as an example to those that wish to write modules that use the Apache API. The main file is `mod_example.c`, which illustrates all the different callback mechanisms and call syntaxes. By no means does an add-on module need to include routines for all of the callbacks - quite the contrary! The example module is an actual working module. If you link it into your server, enable the "example-handler" handler for a location, and then browse to that location, you will see a display of some of the tracing the example module did as the various callbacks were made. ## Compiling the example module To include the example module in your server, follow the steps below: 1. Run `configure` with `--enable-example` option. 2. Make the server (run "`make`"). To add another module of your own: 1. `cp modules/experimental/mod_example.c modules/new_module/_mod_myexample.c_` 2. Modify the file. 3. Create `modules/new_module/config.m4`. 1. Add `APACHE_MODPATH_INIT(new_module)`. 2. Copy APACHE_MODULE line with "example" from `modules/experimental/config.m4`. 3. Replace the first argument "example" with _myexample_. 4. Replace the second argument with brief description of your module. It will be used in `configure --help`. 5. If your module needs additional C compiler flags, linker flags or libraries, add them to CFLAGS, LDFLAGS and LIBS accordingly. See other `config.m4` files in modules directory for examples. 6. Add `APACHE_MODPATH_FINISH`. 4. Create `module/new_module/Makefile.in`. If your module doesn't need special build instructions, all you need to have in that file is `include $(top_srcdir)/build/special.mk`. 5. Run ./buildconf from the top-level directory. 6. Build the server with --enable-myexample ## Using the `mod_example` Module To activate the example module, include a block similar to the following in your `httpd.conf` file: ``` <Location /example-info> SetHandler example-handler </Location> ``` As an alternative, you can put the following into a [`.htaccess`](#calibre_link-321) file and then request the file "test.example" from that location: ``` AddHandler example-handler .example ``` After reloading/restarting your server, you should be able to browse to this location and see the brief display mentioned earlier. ## Example 指令 | [说明](#calibre_link-18) | Demonstration directive to illustrate the Apache module API | | --- | --- | | [语法](#calibre_link-19) | `Example` | | [作用域](#calibre_link-20) | server config, virtual host, directory, .htaccess | | [状态](#calibre_link-21) | 实验(X) | | [模块](#calibre_link-22) | mod_example | `Example` directive just sets a demonstration flag which the example module's content handler displays. It takes no arguments. If you browse to an URL to which the example content-handler applies, you will get a display of the routines within the module and how and in what order they were called to service the document request. The effect of this directive one can observe under the point "`Example directive declared here: YES/NO`".
