SlashDocumentationIndex - parent These files are what tells Apache to be a slave to perl. Various apache functions are replaced by perl functions.
Notable things:
- Anything ending in .pl is to be interpreted as a perl script handled by Apache::Registry
- Apache is told Files ending in .tmpl are to be handled by Slash::Apache::TemplatePages
- A number of perl modules are added to every Apache process
- Database is set to mysql Slash::DB::MySQL
- AllowOverride None is set on htdocs so .htaccess files will never work, and could not anyway due to the access control phase being taken over.
- The virtual user and 'skin' are set. The code says 'skin' but this is actually a 'theme'
- A number of Apache 'phases' have perl code added to them, which in most cases means Apache uses the perl code rather thamn its own. Among these:
- First Apache phase: post-read-request
- Second Apache phase: URI translation - the index page handler and userdir handler completely replaced
- Fourth Apache phase: access control - Slash::Apache::Banlist, Slash::Apache::User
- Ninth Apache phase: response, aka content handler
- Eleventh Apache phase: cleanup- PerlCleanupHandler ,Slash::Apache::Log ,PerlCleanupHandler,Slash::Apache::Log::UserLog
- AddHandler server-parsed .shtml , AddHandler server-parsed .inc
