    make install

SYNOPSIS

Top

In a dynamic mod_perl source-file:

    use Apache::Keywords;

    # Create a keywords object
    $k = new Apache::Keywords;

    # Set different parameters
    $k->name('PersonalProfile');
    $k->expires('+1M');
    $k->path("/");
    $k->domain('xxx.com');

    # Get parameters
    print $k->expires;
    print $k->path;
    ...

    # Add new keywords to the profile
    $k->new_keywords($r,"horse, dog");
    # Special version for Apache::ASP
    $k->new_keywords_asp($Request,"cars, motorcycles");

    # Return the content of the cookie profile
    $hashref = $k->profile($r);
    print $hashref->{'horse'};
    %hash = %$hashref;
    # Special version for Apache::ASP
    $k->profile_asp($Request);




In a the .htaccess for apache static-files, e.g. .html-files: <Files ~ (\.html)> SetHandler perl-script PerlFixupHandler Apache::Keywords PerlSetVar KeywordsName "PersonalProfile" PerlSetVar KeywordsExpires "+1M" PerlSetVar KeywordsPath "/" PerlSetVar KeywordsDomain "xxx.com" </Files>

DESCRIPTION

Top

An Apache::Keywords class object will generate/update a cookie. The cookie contains a personal profile, e.g. counts the different keywords that are added to it. The module could be configured as a "PerlFixupHandler" for a static file in mod_perl, e.g. HTML-files. It could also be used in web scripts, like mod_perl scripts that uses Apache::ASP or Apache::Registry. In the static version, Apache::Keywords fetches the keywords from phrases like <META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="cars, motorcycles">.

METHODS

Top

The following methods could be use in dynamic web scripts:

$k = new Apache::Keywords;

Make a new Apache::Keywords object and return it.

$k->name(<name>);

Sets the name of the cookie that is used for the personal profile. Without argument, the function returns the name of the cookie.

$k->expires(<expiration time>);

Sets the cookie parameter for expiration. Without argument, the function returns the expiration time already set.

$k->path(<path>);

Sets the path to be associated with the cookie. Without argument, the function returns the path already set.

$k->domain(<domain name>);

Sets the domain name to be associated with the cookie. Without argument, the function returns the domain name already set.

$k->new_keywords($r,<string with keywords>);

Add the new keywords of this HTTP-call. The argument is a string with the different words separated with space. $r is the Apache mod_perl request object.

$k->new_keywords_asp($Request,<string with keywords>);

A special version of new_keywords() suited for Apache::ASP. The $Request object is special for Apache::ASP.

$k->profile;

Return the profile in a hash reference, e.g. profile->{'horse'} == 3, profile->{'dog'} == 2.

$k->profile_asp

A special version of profile() suited for Apache::ASP. The $Request is special for Apache::ASP.
