The varnish docs say that we can include C snippets inside a VCL file, like
sub vcl_hash {
C{
int i = /* Some logic to get a number */
}C
}
But now how can I use the value of the integer i
to set a response header, or cookie
See varnish.vcc
And the functions:
in varnish 4 there is ctx
variabl defined for the context (as opposed to sp
in varnish 3 ) (source)
example:
sub vcl_hash {
C{
const char *hash = calc_hash(...);
const struct gethdr_s hdr = {
HDR_BERESP,
"\010X-Hash:" // length prefixed string, in octal
};
VRT_SetHdr(ctx, &hdr, hash, vrt_magic_string_end);
}C
}
