Hello I had a look at your two modules, and my first impression is that they partially overlap existing ones. I only had a quick look, do not hesistate to tell me if I am wrong. mod_replace seems to do the same functionnality as mod_substiture with the n flag, but it adds environement variable substitution. Did you consider extending mod_substitute? You could add a flag so that the RHS is treated as an apache expression, which would allox environment variable substitution, and more: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/en/expr.html mod_random seems to extend mod_unique_id, by making the random data more random (using apr_generate_random_bytes instead of ap_random_insecure_bytes) and with a configurable length. Here again, you could extend mod_unique_id, by adding directives so that the administrator can set true or insecure randomness, chose generated data length, and environment variable name. -- Emmanuel Dreyfus [email protected]
