Apache FilesMatch regexp: Can it match by the cache buster 10 digit (rails generated) following the filename?
- by ynkr
According to the apache FilesMatch docs:
The FilesMatch directive provides
for access control by filename
Basically, I only want to set an expires header for resources that have a 10 digit "cache buster" id appended to the name. So, here is my attempt at such a thing in my httpd.conf
<FilesMatch "(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|js|css)\?\d{10}$">
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "now plus 5 minutes"
</FilesMatch>
And here is an example of a resource I want to match:
http://localhost:3000/images/of/elvis/eating-a-bacon-sandwich.png?1306277384
Now obviously my FilesMatch regexp is not matching so I am guessing 1 of 2 things is happening. Either my regexp is wonky or the '?1231231231' cache busting part of the file is not part of what apache considers part of the filename. Can anybody confirm and/or give me a way to cache only those resources that will not persist beyond the next deploy?
