Just Part of the url tolower

do you want to lower whole HTTP::path string (e.g. /myDirectory/Index.html) or only the first directory (e.g. /myDirectory/)?

 

 

whole HTTP::path string

 

 

[root@ve10:Active] config b rule myrule list

 

rule myrule {

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { [HTTP::query] ne "" } {

 

HTTP::redirect " tolower [HTTP::path]]?[HTTP::query]"

 

} else {

 

HTTP::redirect " tolower [HTTP::path]]"

 

}

 

}

 

}

 

 

[root@ve10:Active] config curl -I 'http://www.example.com/myDirectory/Index.html?Param1=Value1&Param2=Value2'

 

HTTP/1.0 302 Found

 

Location: http://www.example.com/mydirectory/...am2=Value2

 

Server: BigIP

 

Connection: Keep-Alive

 

Content-Length: 0

 

 

the first directory

 

 

[root@ve10:Active] config b rule myrule list

 

rule myrule {

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { [scan [HTTP::path] {/%[^/]} str] == 1 } {

 

HTTP::redirect " map [list /${str}/ /[string tolower $str]/] [HTTP::uri]]"

 

}

 

}

 

}

 

 

[root@ve10:Active] config curl -I 'http://www.example.com/myDirectory/Index.html?Param1=Value1&Param2=Value2'

 

HTTP/1.0 302 Found

 

Location: http://www.example.com/mydirectory/...am2=Value2

 

Server: BigIP

 

Connection: Keep-Alive

 

Content-Length: 0

 

 

I've not been able to test it but this might work (of course, remove the logging once it does work);

Find the first element of the URI and lower it
  set stringtolower [string tolower [findstr [HTTP::uri] "/" "0" "/"]]
  log local0. "Lowered part of URI is: $stringtolower"
  Extract the rest of the URI that we don't want to lower
  set restofuri [findstr [HTTP::uri] $stringtolower "1"]
  log local0. "Remaining URI is $restofuri"
  Rebuild the URI and modify it before sending to the server
  HTTP::uri /$stringtolower/$restofuri
  log local0. "Rebuilt URI is /$stringtolower/$restofuri"

Here's two methods:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
         going to split the URI on the "/" character and loop through the list
set newURI ""
for { set x 0 } { $x < [llength [split [HTTP::uri] "/"]] } { incr x } {
if { $x == 1 } {
                         this is the first path - the one we want to set to lowercase
append newURI "[string tolower [lindex [split [HTTP::uri] "/"] 1]]/" 
} else {
append newURI "[lindex [split [HTTP::uri] "/"] $x]/"
}
}
         the above append loop adds an unnecessary "/" at the end, so strip it here
set newURI [string range $newURI 0 end-1]
log local0. $newURI
}

or:

effectively splitting the first part of the URI away from everything else, in one long string manipulation statement

set newURI1 [string tolower [string range [HTTP::uri] 0 [string first "/" [HTTP::uri] 1]]][string range [HTTP::uri] [expr [string first "/" [HTTP::uri] 1] + 1] end]

log local0. $newURI1

Both just deal with the URI, so to get the full URL, just do this:

[HTTP::host]$newURI
