 Posted: Tue Aug 10, 2004 5:08 pm Post subject: Webapp-config Config File Variables? |
 |
|
Hi,
I don't use the default gentoo means of laying out directories for virtual hosts. Aside from using /home/www rather than /var/www, I lay my sites out as:
/home/www/domain.tld/subdomain
I find this makes list output easier to sort through (since not everything will start with "www") and in general make maintaining subdomains much easier.
The problem is, I can't figure out how to get webapp-config set up to work with this. I see its config file has a variable called "VHOST_ROOT", which looks like what I want to change, but the examples reference a "${G_HOSTNAME}" without explaining what it is or where it came from. I am left to assume it will expand to "subdomain.domain.tld", which isn't what I'm looking for.
Does anyone have any knowledge about what that referenced variable actually does, and if there are others similar that are composite components of it?
Thanks,
Kevin |

I myself set it up as follows.
VHOST_ROOT="/home/vhosts/${G_HOSTNAME}"
I understand your problem since ${G_HOSTNAME} will contain subdomain.domain.ext which you want splitted.
I myself would supply every subdomain as a different site with it's own task which it should be.
My advice would be to modify your directory structure. Or try and pursuade the people behing webapp-config to allow more resolution on the settings. |

How does this fly? | Code: | | VHOST_ROOT="/home/www/${G_HOSTNAME#*.}/${G_HOSTNAME%%.*}" |
This uses Bash parameter expansion like the original, but with fancier footwork. It should give the following results:
which may not be exactly the behaviour you wanted for four-component domain FQDNs.
Caveat: I don't have a bash shell handy to test the syntax with, but you can find it in the bash man page.

Well, that's a little more elegant than my hack on webapp-config to allow this - too much perl coding for me I think 
Anyway, here's the patch I applied, I might ditch it in favour of your syntax to remove the BASH 3.0+ dependency I created, especially since it has the same caveat as your version....

| If this is still an issue, please file a bug on bugs.gentoo.org and we'll see if it's something that should be incorporated into the python version. |
