NAME

CGI::SSI_Parser - Implement SSI for Perl CGI

SYNOPSIS

   use CGI::SSI_Parser;
 
 
   $CGI::SSI_Parser::recursive = 1;
 
 
   fssi($filename);
   sssi($string);
 
 

DESCRIPTION

CGI::SSI_Parser is used in CGI scripts for parsing SSI directives in files or string variables, and fully implements the functionality of apache's mod_include module.

It is an alternative to famous Apache::SSI modules, but it doesn't require mod_perl. This is an advantage to those who are using public hosting services. There is a disadvantage, however - the module consumes much memory, and I don't recommend using it on heavy-loaded sites (currently it's being used on a site with 10000 hits, and I consider this as a limit). I hope to get rid of this disadvantage by the time the release comes out (currently it's beta).

SSI Directives

This module supports the same directives as mod_include. For methods listed below but not documented, please see mod_include's online documentation at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_include.html .

* config
* echo
This directive is not fully supported in current version.
* exec
* fsize
* flastmod
* include
* printenv
* set
This directive is not supported in current version.
* perl
This directive is not supported in current version.
* if
* elif
* else
* endif
These four directives are not supported in current version.

Outline Usage

First you need to load the CGI::SSI_Parser module:

   use CGI::SSI_Parser;
 
 

You need to specify the following when processing of all nested directives is needed (default value - 0):

  $CGI::SSI_Parser::recursive = 1;
 
 

To parse file or string you need to use:

   fssi($filename);
   sssi($string);
 
 

The result is printed to STDOUT.

TO DO

Full implementation of all SSI directives.

Optimize memory consumption.
