Greetings.

I have an hgweb server running behind nginx, which talks to it via uwsgi. I want to get access to the REQUEST_URI uwsgi environment variable within a template (ie, one of the .tmpl files), but can't work out how to.

Looking at the code of request.py, I can see that the environment is bundled up into a dict-valued rawenv attribute in a parsedrequest object, and that the REQUEST_URI environment variable is in there. So the information is... nearby, but I can't for the life of me work out how to get at it from within a template.

I've tried {rawenv%REQUEST_URI} and {rawenv.REQUEST_URI}, and (get(rawenv,'REQUEST_URI')}, so it's clear that my initial guess, that the various relevant dictionaries are in scope to be looked up by the Mercurial template language, is wrong. As you can see, though I've looked at request.py, I haven't gone through it in enough detail to be confident about how the information is moving about.

I'm conscious, of course, that there may be a horde of documentation I'm simply missing, so I'm very happy to RTFM if I can find where the full FM is located.

Why do I want this? Because of the way I've laid out the URLs here, with some non-trivial (but not insane) URL rewriting, I've made things a bit hard for myself: in the template, {url} doesn't expand to the actual URI from the client point of view, but instead to the ‘real’ location after rewriting. It's the client-visible URL I want to manipulate in the template.

I've looked at a few recent months in the list archive, and at entries in the bugparade [1] (both open and a quick look through the closed ones), but I haven't stumbled across any discussion of a similar issue. I did ask a question on stackoverflow [2], but I don't think that's currently a rich source of Hg help, unfortunately.

Thanks for any pointers,

Norman
