nginx-c-function

It is a NGINX module that allow you to link your .so(c/c++) application in server context and call the function of .so application in location directive.

Introduction

nginx-c-function is a nginx module which allow to link the .so(c/c++) application in nginx config, and call the function of .so file in location context area. Therefore, you could direct link your C/C++ application to nginx server.

How it works

Usage

# nginx.conf

server {
  listen 8888;
  ...
  ngx_http_c_func_link_lib "/path/to/your/libcfuntest.so";
  ...
  ...
  location = /testCFunGreeting {
      # if not variable specified, direct write response out
      ngx_http_c_func_call "my_app_simple_get_greeting"; 
  }
}

server {
  listen 8989;
  aio threads;
  ...
  ngx_http_c_func_link_lib "/path/to/your/libcfuntest.so"; # sharing data memory with server 1 if the path are same with server 1
  ...
  ...
  location = /testCFunGreeting {
      # if variable specified, not response write out, but it stored into myResponseVariable
      ngx_http_c_func_call "my_app_simple_get_greeting" respTo=myResponseVariable;

      return 200 $myResponseVariable;
  }
}

server {
  listen 8999;
  aio threads;
  ...
  ngx_http_c_func_link_lib "/path/to/your/libcfuntest2.so"; # another application
  ...
  ...
  location = /testPost {
      add_header Allow "GET, POST, HEAD" always;
      if ( $request_method !~ ^(POST)$ ) {
        return 405;
      }
      ngx_http_c_func_call "my_2nd_app_simple_get_token";
  }
}

server {
  listen 9888;
  aio threads;
  ...
  ## Download application from cloud repo e.g. ngx_http_c_func_download_and_link_lib <download_link> <dest_link_file>
  ngx_http_c_func_download_and_link_lib "http://abc.com/repos/libcfuntest.so" "/etc/nginx/libcfuntest3.so"
  ...
  ...
  location = /testPost {
      add_header Allow "GET, POST, HEAD" always;
      if ( $request_method !~ ^(POST)$ ) {
        return 405;
      }
      ngx_http_c_func_call "my_3rd_app_simple_get_token";
  }
}

server {
  listen 9898;
  aio threads;
  ...
  ## Download application from cloud repo with extra header e.g. ngx_http_c_func_download_and_link_lib <download_link> <headers> <dest_link_file>
  ngx_http_c_func_download_and_link_lib "https://abc.com/repos/libcfuntest.so" "Accept-Language:en_US\r\nAuthorization:Bearer KA.eyJ2ZXJzaadlasdlaldhjHJ2h3ldjklsjaklcjkljasdklcmasaskdaJxdkL3ftjM\r\n" "/etc/nginx/libcfuntest4.so"
  ...
  ...
  location = /testPost {
      add_header Allow "GET, POST, HEAD" always;
      if ( $request_method !~ ^(POST)$ ) {
        return 405;
      }
      ngx_http_c_func_call "my_other_app_simple_get_token";
  }
}

Installation

wget 'http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.10.3.tar.gz'
tar -xzvf nginx-1.10.3.tar.gz
cd nginx-1.10.3/

./configure --add-module=/path/to/nginx-c-function

make -j2
sudo make install

ngx_http_c_func_module.h header not found when configure

When first time configure this project, I purposely do not include this header, you may need to install it to your c header file as this header file need to share with your .so application as well.

Example of installing header

install -m 644 /path/to/nginx-c-function/src/ngx_http_c_func_module.h /usr/local/include/

Sample Application Development

Feel free to clone a sample project on Sample Project

#include <stdio.h>
#include <ngx_http_c_func_module.h>

/*** build the program as .so library and copy to the preferred place for nginx to link this library ***/
/*** gcc -shared -o libcfuntest.so -fPIC cfuntest.c ***/

    is_service_on=1;
}



void my_app_simple_get_greeting(ngx_http_c_func_ctx_t *ctx) {
    ngx_http_c_func_log_info(ctx, "Calling back and log from my_app_simple_get");

    ngx_http_c_func_write_resp(
        ctx,
        200,
        "200 OK",
        "text/plain",
        "greeting from ngx_http_c_func testing"
    );
}

        ctx->req_args
    );
}

void my_app_simple_get_token_args(ngx_http_c_func_ctx_t *ctx) {

    ngx_http_c_func_log(info, ctx, "%s\n", "Shutting down The Application");

    is_service_on = 0;
}

Noted:

The c-func init and exit are reserved function when started the nginx, it will call init method, when stop nginx, it will call exit function.

void ngx_http_c_func_init(ngx_http_c_func_ctx_t* ctx){}
void ngx_http_c_func_exit(ngx_http_c_func_ctx_t* ctx){}

Log Level

The log can be called, the logged message will be store where you config error log in nginx.conf

ngx_http_c_func_log_info(ctx, "This is info direct message");
ngx_http_c_func_log(info, ctx, "%s", "This is info with formatted message");
ngx_http_c_func_log_debug(ctx, "This is debug direct message");
ngx_http_c_func_log(debug, ctx, "%s", "This is debug with formatted message");

ngx_http_c_func_log_info(ctx, "%s", "This is info with formatted message"); // Wrong format
ngx_http_c_func_log_debug(ctx, "%s", "This is info with formatted message"); // Wrong format

provide ca-cert to download your app(.so)?? please embedded this in your nginx.conf's server context.

ngx_http_c_func_ca_cert "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-cert.crt"
ngx_http_c_func_download_and_link_lib "https://abc.com/repos/libcfuntest.so" "/etc/nginx/libcfuntest4.so"

provide ca-cert and extra header to download your app(.so)?? please embedded this in your nginx.conf's server context.

ngx_http_c_func_ca_cert "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-cert.crt"
ngx_http_c_func_download_and_link_lib "https://abc.com/repos/libcfuntest.so" "Accept-Language:en_US\r\nAuthorization:Bearer KA.eyJ2ZXJzaadlasdlaldhjHJ2h3ldjklsjaklcjkljasdklcmasaskdaJxdkL3ftjM\r\n" "/etc/nginx/libcfuntest4.so"

Test

It depends on nginx test suite libs, please refer test-nginx for installation.

cd /path/to/nginx-c-function
export PATH=/path/to/nginx-dirname:$PATH 
sudo prove -r t/
