Hi,
This is the virtual file system module,
meaning that you can serve context from non-file systems.
Currently it only supports zip files, but has already added support
for gzip and bzip archives.
It is based on mod_autoindex, with couple of extra lines to
mount filesystem and deliver context.
It can browse or serve context directly from zip files, or any other
virtual file system, with correct driver.
I'm planning to add the support for .iso CD images .rpm, .tar and .cpio
archives.
Simple configuration:
#Comment out the autoindex module
#LoadModule autoindex_module modules/mod_autoindex.so
LoadModule vfsindex_module modules/mod_vfsindex.so
<Location /zipfile>
SetHandler vfs-handler
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
IndexOptions FancyIndexing VersionSort
VFSMount zip /wherever/whatever.zip
</Location>
now browse to http://localhost/zip24/
