How to set Apache conditional header based on URL?

Question

I want to set different HTTP header depending on the URL. In my particular case I want a specific URL (e.g. regex ^/abc$) to have a different header than all th

Answer 1

This is a one-line alternative taken from documentation:

Header always set CustomHeader my-value "expr=%{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/special_path.php$#"

Answer 2

Use If condition like this to evaluate regular expression:

<If "%{REQUEST_URI} =~ m#^/abc/?$#">

EDIT: On Apache 2.4+ following works for me:

<IfModule mod_headers.c>
    <If "%{THE_REQUEST} =~ m#\s/+abc/?[?\s]#">
        Header set Content-Security-Policy: "default-src 'none'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline';"
    </If>
    <Else>
        Header set Content-Security-Policy: "default-src 'none'; child-src https: *.youtube.com 'self'; connect-src 'self'; font-src 'self'; img-src 'self'; script-src https: *.ytimg.com *.youtube.com 'self'; style-src 'self';"
    </Else>
</IfModule>

If you are on older Apache then use this mod_rewrite trick:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+abc/?[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ - [E=MYENV1:1]

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !\s/+abc/?[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ - [E=MYENV2:1]

Header set Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'none'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline';" env=MYENV1
Header set Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'none'; child-src https: *.youtube.com 'self'; connect-src 'self'; font-src 'self'; img-src 'self'; script-src https: *.ytimg.com *.youtube.com 'self'; style-src 'self';" env=MYENV2
