Nginx module overview

Nginx modules cannot be added dynamically like Apache. All modules must be pre-compiled into the Nginx binary executable file.
Nginx modules have three roles:
(1) Handlers (processing module) – used to process HTTP requests and output content.
(2) Filters (filter module) – used to filter the content output by the Headler.
(3) Load-balancers (load balancing module) – When there are multiple servers to choose from, select a back-end server and forward the HTTP request to that server.

hello world module writing and installation

(1) Execute the following command to write our Nginx module in this directory:
mkdir -p /opt/nginx_hello_world
cd /opt/nginx_hello_world
(2) Start creating the configuration file required for the nginx module (named config)
vim /opt/nginx_hello_world
Then enter the following content to save and exit:

<code>ngx_sdd
HTTP_MODULES=<span>"<span>$HTTP_MODULES</span> ngx_http_hello_world_module"</span>
NGX_ADD>"<span>$NGX_ADDON_SRCS</span><span>$ngx_addon_dir</span>/ngx_http_hello_world_module.c"
CORE_LIBS=<span>"<span>$CORE_LIBS</span> -lpcre"</span></code>

(3) Create Nginx module c program file (the format is "ngx_http_module name_module.c", in this case: ngx_http_hello_world_module.c)
vim /opt/nginx_hello_world /ngx_http_hello_world_module.c

<code><span>#include <ngx_config.h></ngx_config.h></span><span>#include<ngx_core.h></ngx_core.h></span><span>#include<ngx_http.h></ngx_http.h></span><span>static</span><span>char</span> *ngx_http_hello_world(ngx_conf_t *cf,ngx_command_t *cmd,<span>void</span> *conf);

clcf->handler = ngx_http_hello_world_handler;
<span>return</span> NGX_CONF_OK;

}</code>

(4) Refer to my nginx installation article. The Nginx installation blog is slightly different in this step
**./configure –prefix=/usr/local/nginx –add-module=/opt/nginx_hello_world
make&&make install**
(5) Configure nginx.conf (/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf) and add the following content to the server part:
**location = /hello{
hello_world;
}**
(6) Start Nginx, (start Nginx), use a browser to access http://localhost/hello, you can see the text "hello world" output by the written Nginx Hello World module.

Dependency Injection in PHP: Code Examples for BeginnersDependency Injection in PHP: Code Examples for BeginnersMay 14, 2025 am 12:08 AM

You should care about DependencyInjection(DI) because it makes your code clearer and easier to maintain. 1) DI makes it more modular by decoupling classes, 2) improves the convenience of testing and code flexibility, 3) Use DI containers to manage complex dependencies, but pay attention to performance impact and circular dependencies, 4) The best practice is to rely on abstract interfaces to achieve loose coupling.

Select DependencyInjection (DI) for large applications, ServiceLocator is suitable for small projects or prototypes. 1) DI improves the testability and modularity of the code through constructor injection. 2) ServiceLocator obtains services through center registration, which is convenient but may lead to an increase in code coupling.
