在某些情况下，拒绝访问htaccess中的文件

Question

I can successfully block access to a file in htaccess with this:

<Files "image1.jpg">  
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all
</Files>

It works for one file, but I want to block access to thousands of files based on a pattern.

So something like this:

<Files "source_*">  
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all
</Files>

Note the * wildcard. If a file name starts with "source_" then it should deny access.

What would that look like in the correct syntax?

Answer 1

The directive you're looking for is FilesMatch . With it, you can use Regex to specify files. Probably something like:

<FilesMatch "source_.(gif|jpe?g|png)$">
# ...
</FilesMatch>

If you want to test your Regular Expression more easily, I'd recommend Regexr
