 You may try looking into the stub status module, 
 src/http/modules/ngx_http_stub_status_module.c.  It defines 
 several variables ($connections_active, $connections_reading, 
 $connections_writing, $connections_waiting) and it's easy enough 
 to follow.

NGINX Module - create variables

2013-12-03 Thread Alex Koch
Hi,

I would like to create a small module which execute some routines, returns an 
NGX_OK, somewhat similar in concept to 
http://blog.zhuzhaoyuan.com/2009/08/creating-a-hello-world-nginx-module/

However I would like once the module executes to create variables such as 
$my_var which would be accessible via config files to other blocks or to the 
same location block.

I am aware of the register_variable option, with ngx_http_variable_t *var, 
*v; - but the examples I have seen so far, execute the module only once this 
variable is loaded in the config file.

What I would like is being able to define a couple of config variables once my 
module is loaded. Is this possible at all? If so, could you point me to a 
sample/module which does this so I can learn from it?

Many thanks,

Alex
