Setup werc with lighttpd
========================

Minimal setup
-------------
This is the most minimal setup, for a single domain, and lets werc handle static files.

    $HTTP["host"] =~ "^test\.cat-v\.org$" {
        index-file.names = ( )
        server.error-handler-404 = "/werc.rc"
        alias.url       += ( "/werc.rc" => "/var/www/cat-v.org/bin/werc.rc" ) # Here use the path to werc.rc in your system.
        cgi.assign += ( ".rc" => "")
        server.dir-listing = "disable"
    }

Advanced setup
--------------

A more ellaborate setup, using virtual hosts to handle multiple domains, and
alias to let lighttpd handle static files.  Also show how to add external cgi's
to the setup, in this case Mercurial's web interface.

    $HTTP["host"] =~ "^((harmful|9p|gsoc|doc|uriel|src|repo|www|)(\.|)cat-v\.org|(www\.)?binarydream.org|)$" {

        index-file.names = ( )
        evhost.path-pattern     = "/var/www/cat-v.org/sites/%3.%0/"
        server.error-handler-404 = "/werc.rc"

        alias.url       += ( "/pub/" => "/var/www/cat-v.org/pub/" )
        alias.url       += ( "/favicon.ico" => "/var/www/cat-v.org/pub/default_favicon.ico" )
        alias.url       += ( "/doc/" => "/var/www/cat-v.org/sites/doc.cat-v.org/" )
        alias.url       += ( "/werc.rc" => "/var/www/cat-v.org/bin/werc.rc" )
        alias.url       += ( "/debug.rc" => "/var/www/cat-v.org/bin/debug.rc" )
        cgi.assign += ( ".rc" => "")
        server.dir-listing = "disable"

        cgi.assign += ( ".cgi" => "")
        url.rewrite-once = ( "/hg/(.*)" => "/hg/hgwebdir.cgi/$1" )
        alias.url       += ( "/hg/" => "/var/www/cat-v.org/bin/"  )
    }
