libapa...2::MPM(3pm)

🦋 NAME 🦋

Apache2::MPM — okay so bestie, this is the Perl API for accessing Apache MPM information. That's the whole assignment. No cap. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use Apache2::MPM ();

# check whether Apache MPM is threaded
if (Apache2::MPM->is_threaded) { do_something() }

# which mpm is used
my $mpm = lc Apache2::MPM->show;

# query mpm properties
use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(:mpmq);
if (Apache2::MPM->query(Apache2::Const::MPMQ_STATIC)) { ... }

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Apache2::MPM provides the Perl API for accessing Apache MPM information. Short queen behavior, literally one sentence, and yet it ate. 💅

---

👑 API 👑

Apache2::MPM provides the following functions and/or methods:

---

🔍 query

Query various attributes of the MPM. Nosey?? maybe. useful?? absolutely. ✨

my $query = Apache2::MPM->query($const);

• obj: $class ( Apache2::MPM class ) — the class name. yes that's the whole description, she's lowkey self-explanatory 🫶
• arg1: $const ( Apache2::Const :mpmq group constant ) — the MPM attribute you wanna query.
• ret: $query ( boolean ) — the result of the query
• since: 2.0.00

For example, to test whether the mpm is static:

use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(MPMQ_STATIC);
if (Apache2::MPM->query(Apache2::Const::MPMQ_STATIC)) { ... }

---

🧵 is_threaded

Check whether the running Apache MPM is threaded. vibe check on the threading, fr fr 🌈

my $is_threaded = Apache2::MPM->is_threaded;

• obj: $class ( Apache2::MPM class ) — the class name
• ret: $is_threaded ( boolean ) — threaded or not
• since: 2.0.00

not me telling you that this functionality is just a shortcut for:

use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(MPMQ_IS_THREADED);
my $is_threaded = Apache2::MPM->query(Apache2::Const::MPMQ_IS_THREADED);

like, iconic of them to hand you a shortcut bestie 💖

💫 show

What mpm is used 👀

my $mpm = Apache2::MPM->show();

• obj: $class ( Apache2::MPM class ) — the class name
• ret: $mpm ( string ) — the name of the MPM. e.g., "Prefork".
• since: 2.0.00
