To parsing the POST/GET request and Cookie header of Varnish (vmod-parsereq)

Difficult to access the POST/GET/Cookie value in Varnish.
I want more easily to access it.
Therefore, I tried to make a VMOD to parse.

Feature

• Support POST/GET request and Cookie header.
• Support application/x-www-form-urlencoded and multipart/form-data Content-type in POST request.
• Can be getting a list of key.
• Support Varnish 3.0.1, 3.0.2 , 3.0.3-rc1

How to use

For example, how to set the response header from the POST key of hoge.
It’s a simple.

import parsereq;

vcl_recv{
  //please write "parsereq.init();" to 1st line in vcl_recv.
  parsereq.init();
}
vcl_deliver{
  set resp.http.hoge = parsereq.post_header("hoge");
}

Future plans

• urlencode/decode
• change the value and set to bereq
• refactoring

I hope that this code is of help to you.
