NAME

Apache::LogFormat::Compiler - Compile LogFormat to perl-code

SYNOPSIS

use Apache::LogFormat::Compiler;

my $log_handler = Apache::LogFormat::Compiler->new("combined");
my $log = $log_handler->log_line(
    $env,
    $res,
    $length,
    $reqtime,
    $time
);

DESCRIPTION

Compile LogFormat to perl-code. For faster generating access_log line.

METHOD

new($fmt:String)

Takes a format string (or a preset template combined or custom) to specify the log format. This middleware implements a subset of Apache's LogFormat templates:

%%    a percent sign
%h    REMOTE_ADDR from the PSGI environment, or -
%l    remote logname not implemented (currently always -)
%u    REMOTE_USER from the PSGI environment, or -
%t    [local timestamp, in default format]
%r    REQUEST_METHOD, REQUEST_URI and SERVER_PROTOCOL from the PSGI environment
%s    the HTTP status code of the response
%b    content length of the response
%T    custom field for handling times in subclasses
%D    custom field for handling sub-second times in subclasses
%v    SERVER_NAME from the PSGI environment, or -
%V    HTTP_HOST or SERVER_NAME from the PSGI environment, or -
%p    SERVER_PORT from the PSGI environment
%P    the worker's process id
%m    REQUEST_METHOD from the PSGI environment
%U    PATH_INFO from the PSGI environment
%q    QUERY_STRING from the PSGI environment
%H    SERVER_PROTOCOL from the PSGI environment

Some of these format fields are only supported by middleware that subclasses AccessLog.

In addition, custom values can be referenced, using %{name}, with one of the mandatory modifier flags i, o or t:

%{variable-name}i    HTTP_VARIABLE_NAME value from the PSGI environment
%{header-name}o      header-name header in the response
%{time-format]t      localtime in the specified strftime format
log_line($env:HashRef,$res:ArrayRef,$length:Integer,$reqtime:Integer,$time:Integer): $log:String

Generates log line.

$env      PSGI-style $env
$res      PSGI-style $res
$length   Content-Length
$reqtime  the time taken to serve request in microseconds 
$time     time the request was received

Sample psgi

use Plack::Builder;
use Time::HiRes;
use Apache::LogFormat::Compiler;

my $log_handler = Apache::LogFormat::Compiler->new(
    '%h %l %u %t "%r" %>s %b "%{Referer}i" "%{User-agent}i" %D'
);
my $compile_log_app = builder {
    enable sub {
        my $app = shift;
        sub {
            my $env = shift;
            my $t0 = [gettimeofday];
            my $res = $app->();
            my $reqtime = int(Time::HiRes::tv_interval($t0) * 1_000_000);
            $env->{psgi.error}->print($log_handler->log_line(
                $env,$res,6,$reqtime, $t0->[0]));
        }
    };
    $app
};

ADD CUSTOM FORMAT STRING

Apache::LogFormat::Compiler allows to add custom format string

my $log_handler = Apache::LogFormat::Compiler->new(
    '%z %{HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR|REMOTE_ADDR}Z',
    char_handlers => +{
        'z' => sub {
            my ($env,$req) = @_;
            return $env->{HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR};
        }
    },
    block_handlers => +{
        'Z' => sub {
            my ($block,$env,$req) = @_;
            # block eq 'HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR|REMOTE_ADDR'
            my ($main, $alt) = split('\|', $args);
            return exists $env->{$main} ? $env->{$main} : $env->{$alt};
        }
    },
);

Any single letter can be used other than Apache::LogFormat::Compiler used. Your sub is called with two or three arguments the content inside the {} from the format (block_handlers only), PSGI environment ($env), and ArrayRef of the response. It should return the string to be logged
