Subject: Re: capturing referer in webrick proxy

Hi,

WEBrick provides a simple access log formatter.
You can specify another format.  See webrick/accesslog.
Another way is use of :RequestCallback instead of :ProxyContentHandler.
A redundant example of both of them:

require 'webrick/httpproxy'
require 'webrick/accesslog'

s = WEBrick::HTTPProxyServer.new(
  :Port => 2200,
  :AccessLog => [
    [ $stderr, WEBrick::AccessLog::REFERER_LOG_FORMAT ]
  ],
  :RequestCallback => proc{|req,res|
    puts "Referer: #{req.header["referer"]}"
  }
)
trap("INT"){ s.shutdown }
s.start


HTH,

Gotoken
