# module WEBrick::AccessLog

AccessLog provides logging to various files in various formats.

Multiple logs may be written to at the same time:

    access_log = [
      [$stderr, WEBrick::AccessLog::COMMON_LOG_FORMAT],
      [$stderr, WEBrick::AccessLog::REFERER_LOG_FORMAT],
    ]

    server = WEBrick::HTTPServer.new :AccessLog => access_log

Custom log formats may be defined. WEBrick::AccessLog provides a subset of the formatting from Apache's mod_log_config httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_log_config.html#formats. See AccessLog::setup_params for a list of supported options

escape(data) click to toggle source

Escapes control characters in `data`

    # File lib/webrick/accesslog.rb, line 150
    def escape(data)
      if data.tainted?
        data.gsub(/[[:cntrl:]\\]+/) {$&.dump[1...-1]}.untaint
      else
        data
      end
    end

format(format_string, params) click to toggle source

Formats `params` according to `format_string` which is described in setup_params.

    # File lib/webrick/accesslog.rb, line 122
    def format(format_string, params)
      format_string.gsub(/\%(?:\{(.*?)\})?>?([a-zA-Z%])/){
         param, spec = $1, $2
         case spec[0]
         when ?e, ?i, ?n, ?o
           raise AccessLogError,
             "parameter is required for \"#{spec}\"" unless param
           (param = params[spec][param]) ? escape(param) : "-"
         when ?t
           params[spec].strftime(param || CLF_TIME_FORMAT)
         when ?p
           case param
           when 'remote'
             escape(params["i"].peeraddr[1].to_s)
           else
             escape(params["p"].to_s)
           end
         when ?%
           "%"
         else
           escape(params[spec].to_s)
         end
      }
    end
