How to Support Configuration per Virtual Host¶
- Use mod_simple_vhost to set up your virtual hosts in subdirectories, e.g. `/www/servers/www.mydomain.com/` etc.
- Add an
include_shell
option to the end of your config file:
include_shell "/www/config_servers"
- Create the file `/www/config_servers` with the following contents, and make sure it is readable (and executable?) by the lighttpd server:
#!/bin/bash for VHOST in `find /var/servers/ -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 \( -type d -or -type l \) -exec test -e "{}/server.conf" \; -exec basename "{}" \; 2>/dev/null` ; do { echo "\$HTTP[\"host\"] == \"$VHOST\" {" echo "var.vhost_name = \"$VHOST\"" echo "server.document-root = \"/www/servers/$VHOST\"" cat "/www/servers/$VHOST/server.conf" echo "}" } ; done
Then for each virtual host, just create a server.conf
file containing the options that should pertain to that host; the config_servers
script will wrap them in a condition matching the hostname, and set two variables:
vhost_name
: the virtual host name, e.g. "www.mydomain.com"vhost_path
: the path to the virtual host directory, e.g. "/www/servers/www.mydomain.com"
