Rewrite rules in hhvm to use pretty urls on specific project applications only

Enviroment

Using HHVM 3.0 in Ubuntu Saucy 13.10, with Apache2 and using Fastcgi

Overview

I have installed the aforementioned applications and have configured as seen in this gist

By default apache uses /var/www as the root directory of all my projects and accessing:

0.0.0.0/project1

would give me as I expected (That is reading the index.php as the default document).

The problem

The problem then arises when I want to use pretty urls for an application, because I can no longer use .htaccess to do url rewrites and serve all request to index.php

What I did

Okay what I did is to look for solution over the internet and found several configurations for VirtualHost directive like so:

VirtualHost {
  * {
    Pattern = .*
    RewriteRules {
      * {
        pattern = (.*)$
        to = index.php/$1
        qsa = true
      }
    }
  }
}

And what I presume it do is to have pretty urls work on the SourceRoot as defined in the Server directive or I am wrong?

Question

How do I make pretty urls on projects only that I need it to work?

Look at RewriteRule in apache. You want apache to be doing the rewrites. All HHVM does is serve whatever file apache tells it to.
