Buildout recipes for apache.

Project description

Apache buildout recipe
======================

This package provides buildout_ recipes for the configuration of apache. This
has a number of features that we have found useful in production, such as
support for long CA chains, htpasswd authentication protection and the support
for optional templates provided with the buildout.

We use the system apache, so this recipe will not install apache for you. If
you wish to install apache, use `zc.recipe.cmmi`_ perhaps.

.. _buildout: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout
.. _`zc.recipe.cmmi`: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.recipe.cmmi


Mandatory Parameters
--------------------

interface
The IP address of the interface on which to listen
sitename
The name of the site, used to identify the correct virtual host
serveradmin
The email address of the administrator of the server
proxyport
The port to which requests are forwarded

Optional Parameters
-------------------

realm
The name of the HTTP Authentication realm, if you wish to password protect this site
passwdfile
The filename of the htpasswd file to secure the realm, defaults to "passwd" in the part directory
username
The username used in the htpasswd file
allowpurge
The IP address of a server that is permitted to send PURGE requests to this server
portal
The name of the portal object in the zope server, defaults to "portal"
template
The filename of the template file to use, if you do not wish to use the default
configfile
The name of the config file written by the recipe, defaults to "apache.cfg" in the part directory
ssl
Should ssl be on or off. By default this isn't needed, setting the ssl options is enough
to turn it on. Useful to force SSL off, even if your base buildout set defaults.
sslca
A list of full pathnames to certificate authority certificate files
sslcert
The full pathname of the ssl certificate, if required
sslkey
The full pathname of the key for the ssl certificate
redirects
A list of other domains to forward to this domain
rewrites
A list source;destination;flags that gets expanded to 'RewriteRule source destination [flags]'
auto-www
If true, the recipe will have a Redirect for www.${sitename}. If your sitename already has a www prefix, the alias will be sitename with the prefix trimmed.
logdir
Where to store apache logs (Default: /var/log/apache2)
logformat
What apache logformat to use (Default: combined)
protected
A list of locations to set a basic auth password on, should be a list of lines of the format: <URI>:<realm>:<username>:<password>
enhanced-privacy
Set to true to stop it logging IP addresses (Default: IP addresses are logged)

Domain-level Redirects
======================

When using isotoma.recipe.apache:redirect you can listen on an interface and redirect any hits for a domain to any url.


Mandatory Paramaters
--------------------

interface
The IP and port to listen on, e.g. 192.168.0.19:80
serveradmin
The email address of the administrator of the server
redirects
A list of domain;url pairs, seperated by ';'. E.g. www.isotoma.com;http://www.isotoma.com/foo
