Is it possible, to get a list of all handlers from apache? With setHandler it is possible to create handlers.
One possible usage would be to add a handler for a specific file extension (addHandler). Knowing all the possible handlers and their identifier would ease the process of matching them to a file extension (or in case of URL handlers creating a list of possible URLs).
The handlers must be managed in apache core in some kind of list - how is it possible to get this list out?
On Apache 2.2.x I've activated mod_userdir. I used the default setup, so that http://localhost/~name/ will be connect with ~name/public_html/ and a path within public_html, e.g. ~name/public_html/mySite can be reached through http://localhost/~name/mySite.
How can I achieve, that the same path can be reached through http://mySite.name.localhost/? I don't want a manual approach like it is suggested in other SF questions (such as Apache: Setting up local test server with subdomains), but rather want an automatic mapping of all available paths to the corresponding URL.
I think, several steps will need to be taken: Change mod_userdir configuration, so that the subdomain of localhost will be connected with all available user names on the machine. The second step would maybe include the usage of mod_rewrite, so that the subsubdomain could be matched to the path within ~name/public_html...
What would be your prefered way?
EDIT:
The solution is flagged. I some small modifications to meet special requirements and added comments:
RewriteEngine on
# check, if not redirected yet
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
# look for URLS like 'subdir.username.localhost'
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (.+)\.([^.]+)\.localhost$
# check if /home/username/public_html/subdir is a directory or symbolic link
RewriteCond /home/%2/public_html/%1 -d [OR]
RewriteCond /home/%2/public_html/%1 -l
# rewrite to default target
RewriteRule ^(.+) %{HTTP_HOST}$1 [C]
# rewrite to /home/username/public_html/subdir
RewriteRule (.+)\.([^.]+)\.localhost(?::\d+)?(.*) /home/$2/public_html/$1$3 [L]
