From 52cd23ff837b9512a4dd3c9e43c11ca197142844 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Anderson Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:36:01 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Proxy off to PHP better. The preserve_host option on rack-rewrite seems a bit off. I would assume it would mean it keeps the hostname requested. But instead it replaces it with the internal hostname (the host we proxy to). There is a ticket related to this (https://github.com/jaswope/rack-reverse-proxy/issues/11). In addition, even if it pulled from the right host it also doesn't include the port. There is also already a ticket for this (https://github.com/jaswope/rack-reverse-proxy/pull/17). To resolve this I simply avoiding using the preserve host option. This allows the original host to pass on through to PHP (it doesn't seem to need to be explicitly set, PHP already know it). Both of these option (wrong host and missing port) cause some PHP scripts, like Wordpress, who are trying to redirect to a canonical URL to get caught in an infinate loop. I am also now stripping out the index.php from the PATH_INFO before proxying off. The PHP webserver has it's own built-in method of looking for the index.php. So we add it for detecting the PHP handler should be called but then remove it to let PHP do things it's own way. This helps for script like Wordpress that try to direct to a canoncial URL. It prevent it from bouncing between index.php and the root directory. It may be slightly incorrect for cases where the user explicitly chose to pull up the index.php script. But in the real world I don't know where that would cause a problem and making this change solves a real world problem for Wordpress. Finally, I am passing on the HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR header. Although not standardized it is fairly widely and provide a way for the script to determine the IP address of the real browser since REMOTE_ADDR will be set to the proxy server. --- lib/rack/legacy/php.rb | 8 +++++++- rack-legacy.gemspec | 2 +- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/rack/legacy/php.rb b/lib/rack/legacy/php.rb index d1fc2ff..87460ee 100644 --- a/lib/rack/legacy/php.rb +++ b/lib/rack/legacy/php.rb @@ -22,7 +22,10 @@ class Rack::Legacy::Php # def initialize app, public_dir=Dir.getwd, php_exe='php', port=8180, quiet=false @app = app; @public_dir = public_dir - @proxy = Rack::ReverseProxy.new {reverse_proxy /^.*$/, "http://localhost:#{port}"} + @proxy = Rack::ReverseProxy.new do + reverse_proxy_options preserve_host: false + reverse_proxy /^.*$/, "http://localhost:#{port}" + end @php = ChildProcess.build php_exe, '-S', "localhost:#{port}", '-t', public_dir @php.io.inherit! unless quiet @@ -35,6 +38,9 @@ def initialize app, public_dir=Dir.getwd, php_exe='php', port=8180, quiet=false def call env if valid? env['PATH_INFO'] @php.start unless @php.alive? + ip = Rack::Request.new(env).ip + env['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] = ip if ip + env['PATH_INFO'].gsub! /\/index.php$/, '/' @proxy.call env else @app.call env diff --git a/rack-legacy.gemspec b/rack-legacy.gemspec index 59aaedd..7c61c84 100644 --- a/rack-legacy.gemspec +++ b/rack-legacy.gemspec @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ Gem::Specification.new do |s| s.name = 'rack-legacy' - s.version = '0.9.0' + s.version = '0.9.1' s.homepage = 'https://github.com/eric1234/rack-legacy' s.author = 'Eric Anderson' s.email = 'eric@pixelwareinc.com'
