Re: [squid-users] redirector with POST support !

From: Mauro Del Giudice@ESA on 01/30/2002 03:35 PM

Hello,
I had the same problem, discovering that jesred redirector doesn't support the
POST method very well.
I wrote a my own redirector, very simple, in perl: probably it doesn't have
great performance, but works for me:

I used perl syntax for pattern-matching substituition:

s/<pattern string to search>/<pattern string to replace>/<substitution options>

#!/usr/bin/perl
$|=1;
while (<>)
{
     s@http://my\.host\.com/my/path@http://your.host.com/your/path@;
     print;
}

It works in thie way: for any line in input, which comes from squid, every
occurrence of http://my.host.com/my/path will be replaced by
http://your.host.com/your/path, then the changed line is printed in the standard
output, taken by squid.

As you can see, it is very simple, probably it could be implemented with a
better logic, but at the moment I haven't time to do it.

Probably in the future I will try to modify also the JESRED redirector to
support also the POST method.

Ciao
