LinkTracking3

Problem this snippet solves:

This iRule application builds on the LinkTracking and LinkTracking2 iRule2 that allows you to track URI's that come in through your virtual server and store them in a table with the number of times they have been referenced. The data stored can then be viewed by passing in the "/linkadmin" url which will generate a table of the URI's and their view counts. In this iRule, I've built on the report filtering in LinkTracking2 by adding adding support for URI prefilters that allow you to only store the data for URIs that match specific patterns.

Code :

when HTTP_REQUEST {
  
  set TABLE_LINK    "LINK_TRACKING_[virtual name]";
  set TABLE_FILTERS "LINK_TRACKING_FILTERS_[virtual name]";
  
  switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
    "/linkadmin*" {
      set count_filter "";
      set data_filter "";
      set msg [URI::decode [getfield [HTTP::uri] "/" 3]]
      if { ($msg starts_with "f(") && ($msg ends_with ")") } {
        set count_filter "";
        set data_filter [string range $msg 2 end-1];
        set msg "";
      } elseif { ($msg starts_with "c(") && ($msg ends_with ")") } {
        set count_filter [string range $msg 2 end-1];
        set data_filter "";
        set msg "";
      }
      set count [table keys -subtable $TABLE_LINK -count]
      set content {Link Tracking
