How to install lua-nginx-module module in Nginx

ngx_lua_module is an nginx http module that embeds the lua parser into nginx to parse and execute web backend scripts written in lua language

The features are very good, you can check it out on Baidu. Here is mainly to demonstrate how to install the lua-nginx-module module under Nginx

Of course, if you have never installed Nginx before and find the installation troublesome, you can directly download openresty for quick and easy installation, http://openresty.org/cn/installation.html (the work of Zhang Yichun, a big shot of Alibaba, I admire it~~~)

1. Download and install LuaJIT 2.1 (2.0 or 2.1 are both supported, 2.1 is officially recommended): http://luajit.org/download.html

cd /usr/local/src
wget http://luajit.org/download/LuaJIT-2.1.0-beta2.tar.gz
tar zxf LuaJIT-2.1.0-beta2.tar.gz
cd LuaJIT-2.1.0-beta2
make PREFIX=/usr/local/luajit
make install PREFIX=/usr/local/luajit

2. Download the ngx_devel_kit (NDK) module: https://github.com/simpl/ngx_devel_kit/tags, no installation is required

cd /usr/local/src
wget https://github.com/simpl/ngx_devel_kit/archive/v0.2.19.tar.gz
tar -xzvf v0.2.19.tar.gz

3. Download the latest lua-nginx-module module: https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/tags, no installation is required

cd /usr/local/src
wget https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/archive/v0.10.2.tar.gz
tar -xzvf v0.10.2.tar.gz

4.nginx -V to view the compiled configuration

nginx -V

The author's configuration is as follows:

5. Enter the decompressed directory where nginx was installed before, recompile and install (under the configuration obtained by nginx -V, add the directories of ngx_devel_kit-0.2.19 and ua-nginx-module-0.10.2), the final configuration is as follows:

Setting Environment Variables

export LUAJIT_LIB=/usr/local/luajit/lib
export LUAJIT_INC=/usr/local/luajit/include/luajit-2.1

6. Compile and install

make -j2
make install

7. Check whether the compilation is successful

Add the following code to /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf:

location /hello_lua { 
   default_type 'text/plain'; 
   content_by_lua 'ngx.say("hello, lua")'; 
}

Restart nginx:

service nginx restart

When you visit 10.211.55.3/hello_lua, "hello, lua" will appear, indicating that the installation is successful.

hello, lua
