h1. Module mod_dirlisting - Directory Listings
h2. Description
mod_dirlisting is one of the modules that is loaded by default and doesn't have to be specified on server.modules to work.
A directory listing is generated if a directory is requested and no index-file was found in that directory.
To enable directory listings globally:
dir-listing.activate = "enable"
If you need it only for a directory, use conditionals:
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/download($|/)" {
dir-listing.activate = "enable"
}
You can also use an external generator for directory listings if you use mod_indexfile.
index-file.names = ( "/dir-generator.php" )
For those with an old config file, the obsolete value is:
server.indexfiles = ( "/dir-generator.php" )
If a directory is requested, the dir-generator.php is called instead which can take the REQUEST_URI to see which directory was requested.
For large folders this is highly recommended.
The dir-generator.php file can be found at the bottom of this document or at:
<pre>http://www.archerseven.com/kittykatt/index.php?page=scripts&sub=lighttpdlisting</pre>
