Configuration

For efficiency, it is important that transactions undergo the transformation process only when necessary. You can use the [http-transformations] stanza and associated POPs or request pattern matching rules to configure the objects that require HTTP transformation processing.

You can attach a POP to wanted objects in the object space. The POP must contain the name of a resource as an extended attribute. This resource name is matched against the name of an entry in the [http-transformations] configuration stanza. The value of this matching [http-transformations] stanza entry specifies the name of the file that contains the applicable XSLT rules.

The alternative to configuring a POP is to configure an [http-transformations:<resource_name>] stanza with a request-match entry. If a match with the pattern defined in the request-match entry is found, HTTP transformation processing is triggered.
