Thanks for expanding on what you are doing.

There seems to be no built-in alternative for nginx custom http > module developers (apologies if this question is better suited to the > development list), at least none that we can find documented anywhere. location /test/ { proxy_set_header a a; fastcgi_param b b; my_directive_a c c; my_directive_b d d; } For a request that is handled in that location, three of those directives could send some "extra" information to the upstream, if a suitable "*_pass" directive were active. No "*_pass" directive is active, so those three directives are effectively unused for this request. What do you expect your module to report for a request handled in this location? That may make it clearer what you are trying to achieve. (If it does not, feel free to ignore this mail.)
