NAME

       TSUrlStringGet - traffic Server URL string representations API

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ts/ts.h>

       char * TSUrlStringGet(TSMBuffer bufp, TSMLoc offset, int * length)

       char * TSHttpTxnEffectiveUrlStringGet(TSHttpTxn txn, int * length)

       int TSUrlLengthGet(TSMBuffer bufp, TSMLoc offset)

       void TSUrlPrint(TSMBuffer bufp, TSMLoc offset, TSIOBuffer iobufp)

DESCRIPTION

       The  URL  data  structure  is  a  parsed  version  of a standard internet URL. The Traffic Server URL API
       provides access to URL data stored in marshal buffers. The URL functions can create,  copy,  retrieve  or
       delete entire URLs, and retrieve or modify parts of URLs, such as their host, port or scheme information.

       TSUrlStringGet()  constructs  a  string  representation  of  the URL located at offset within the marshal
       buffer bufp.  (However bufp is actually superfluous and may be null.)  TSUrlStringGet() stores the length
       of the allocated string in the parameter length. This is the same length that  TSUrlLengthGet()  returns.
       The  returned  string  is  allocated  by a call to TSmalloc() and must be freed by a call to TSfree(). If
       length is NULL then no attempt is made to de-reference it.

       TSHttpTxnEffectiveUrlStringGet() is similar to TSUrlStringGet(). The two differences are

       • The source is transaction txn in order to have access to the full request.

       • It combines, if needed, both the explicit url and the Host field. This is done if the explicit URL does
         not have a host and the Host field does.

       This function is useful to guarantee a URL that is as complete as possible given the specific request.

       TSUrlLengthGet() calculates the length of the URL located at offset within the marshal buffer bufp as  if
       it were returned as a string. This length will be the same as the length returned by TSUrlStringGet().

       TSUrlPrint() formats a URL stored in an TSMBuffer to an TSIOBuffer.
