如何从.htaccess中的Apache mod_rewrite（Apache 2.2）中排除某些URI

Question

I have .htaccess file that is successfully redirecting requests based on detecting incoming URI and prefixing with "index.php" for Codeigniter, like so:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

I'm now just building custom Apache modules, and I need to exclude any URI request to that module. My httpd.conf will show something like:

LoadModule my_module        modules/libmod_my.so
<Location /mymodule>
    SetHandler mod_my-handler
</Location>

This should work fine, but the .htaccess rule is catching any request to /mymodule and turning it into /index.php/mymodule

The .htaccess rules do successfully bypass any request to a valid file (graphics, css, js, etc.).

What is the best way to amend the .htaccess to also have it bypass any request like this:

http://localhost/mymodule/function

so that any request to /mymodule is excluded from being modified?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Answer 1

To exclude anything starting with mymodule , add another condition in front of the RewriteRule

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/mymodule

Another approach (although I haven't tried this yet) could be to switch off mod_rewrite inside the Location directive

<Location /mymodule>
    SetHandler mod_my-handler
    RewriteEngine off
</Location>
