<p>Historically, there are several syntax variants for expressions
    used to express a condition in the different modules of the Apache
    HTTP Server.  There is some ongoing effort to only use a single
    variant, called <em>ap_expr</em>, for all configuration directives.
    This document describes the <em>ap_expr</em> expression parser.
    </p>
    <p>The <em>ap_expr</em> expression is intended to replace most other
    expression variants in HTTPD. For example, the deprecated <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_ssl.html#sslrequire">SSLRequire</a></code> expressions can be replaced
    by <a href="mod/mod_authz_core.html#reqexpr">Require expr</a>.  </p>

<h2><a name="grammar" id="grammar">Grammar in Backus-Naur Form notation</a></h2>
    
      <p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backus%E2%80%93Naur_Form">Backus-Naur
      Form</a> (BNF) is a notation technique for context-free grammars,
      often used to describe the syntax of languages used in computing.
      In most cases, expressions are used to express boolean values.
      For these, the starting point in the BNF is <code>expr</code>.
      However, a few directives like <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_log_debug.html#logmessage">LogMessage</a></code> accept expressions
      that evaluate to a string value. For those, the starting point in
      the BNF is <code>string</code>.
      </p>

<h2><a name="vars" id="vars">Variables</a></h2>

<p>The expression parser provides a number of variables of the form
    <code>%{HTTP_HOST}</code>. Note that the value of a variable may depend
    on the phase of the request processing in which it is evaluated.  For
    example, an expression used in an <code class="directive">&lt;If &gt;</code>
    directive is evaluated before authentication is done. Therefore,
    <code>%{REMOTE_USER}</code> will not be set in this case.</p>

<p>The following variables provide the values of the named HTTP request
    headers. The values of other headers can be obtained with the
    <code>req</code> <a href="#functions">function</a>. Using these
    variables may cause the header name to be added to the Vary
    header of the HTTP response, except where otherwise noted for the
    directive accepting the expression. The <code>req_novary</code>
    <a href="#functions">function</a> may be used to circumvent this
    behavior.</p>

<p>The functions marked as "restricted" in the final column are not 
    available in some modules like <code class="module"><a href="./mod/mod_include.html">mod_include</a></code>.</p>

<p>The functions marked as "ordering" in the final column require some
    consideration for the ordering of different components of the server,
    especially when the function is used within the 
    &lt;<code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#if">If</a></code>&gt; directive which is
    evaluated relatively early.</p>
    <div class="note">
    <h3>Environment variable ordering</h3>
    When environment variables are looked up within an 
    &lt;<code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#if">If</a></code>&gt; condition, it's important 
    to consider how extremely early in request processing that this 
    resolution occurs. As a guideline, any directive defined outside of virtual host 
    context (directory, location, htaccess) is not likely to have yet had a 
    chance to execute. <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_setenvif.html#setenvif">SetEnvIf</a></code>
    in virtual host scope is one directive that runs prior to this resolution
    <br />
    <br />
    When <code>reqenv</code> is used outside of &lt;<code class="directive"><a href="./mod/core.html#if">If</a></code>&gt;, the resolution will generally occur later, but the 
    exact timing depends on the directive the expression has been used within.
    </div>

<p>When the functions <code>req</code> or <code>http</code> are used,
    the header name will automatically be added to the Vary header of the
    HTTP response, except where otherwise noted for the directive accepting
    the expression. The <code>req_novary</code> function can be used to
    prevent names from being added to the Vary header.</p>

<p>In addition to string-valued functions, there are also
    list-valued functions which take one string as argument and return a
    wordlist, i.e. a list of strings. The wordlist can be used with the
    special <code>-in</code> operator.  Functions names are not case
    sensitive.  Modules may register additional functions.</p>

<p>There are no built-in list-valued functions. <code class="module"><a href="./mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>
    provides <code>PeerExtList</code>.  See the description of
    <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_ssl.html#sslrequire">SSLRequire</a></code> for details
    (but <code>PeerExtList</code> is also usable outside
    of <code class="directive"><a href="./mod/mod_ssl.html#sslrequire">SSLRequire</a></code>).</p>
