Mod_rewrite on all website images
I'm designing an image repository. I want to uncouple the filename from the image html link. For instance:
- image in filesystem is called
images/items/12543.jpg
- HTML is
<img src="images/car.jpg" />
Does anyone strongly discourages me to rewrite all image requests using PHP so when retrieving images/car.jpg
, Apache really replies content from images/items/12543.jpg
?
I don't know开发者_运维知识库 if I may get performance problems.
It may take a long time until you will get actual performance problems with this, but running each request for a resource through PHP (every process, especially when connecting to a database or doing other complex things, taking up considerable memory on each request) is a bad idea architecturally IMO.
I would recommend either translating 12543
to car
in the file system already, and then doing a (cheaper) URL rewrite for it:
* images/items/car.jpg
* <img src="images/car.jpg" />
Alternative idea: How about doing it like Stack Overflow. Name the jpeg 12543.jpg
and do
<img src="images/12543/car.jpg">
(The car
part being arbitrary and there only for the user's and search engines' enjoyment - what is really parsed by the rewrite rule, and used to fetch the image, is only the 12543
and the .jpg
).
