Module ngx_http_status_module

https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_status_module.html

The ngx_http_status_module module provides access to various status information.

This module was available as part of our commercial subscription until 1.13.10. It was superseded by the ngx_http_api_module module in 1.13.3.

Example Configuration

http {
    upstream backend {
        zone http_backend 64k;

        server backend1.example.com weight=5;
        server backend2.example.com;
    }

    proxy_cache_path /data/nginx/cache_backend keys_zone=cache_backend:10m;

    server {
        server_name backend.example.com;

        location / {
            proxy_pass  http://backend;
            proxy_cache cache_backend;

            health_check;
        }

        status_zone server_backend;
    }

    server {
        listen 127.0.0.1;

        location /upstream_conf {
            upstream_conf;
        }

        location /status {
            status;
        }

        location = /status.html {
        }
    }
}

stream {
    upstream backend {
        zone stream_backend 64k;

        server backend1.example.com:12345 weight=5;
        server backend2.example.com:12345;
    }

    server {
        listen      127.0.0.1:12345;
        proxy_pass  backend;
        status_zone server_backend;
        health_check;
    }
}

Examples of status requests with this configuration:

http://127.0.0.1/status
http://127.0.0.1/status/nginx_version
http://127.0.0.1/status/caches/cache_backend
http://127.0.0.1/status/upstreams
http://127.0.0.1/status/upstreams/backend
http://127.0.0.1/status/upstreams/backend/peers/1
http://127.0.0.1/status/upstreams/backend/peers/1/weight
http://127.0.0.1/status/stream
http://127.0.0.1/status/stream/upstreams
http://127.0.0.1/status/stream/upstreams/backend
http://127.0.0.1/status/stream/upstreams/backend/peers/1
http://127.0.0.1/status/stream/upstreams/backend/peers/1/weight

The simple monitoring page is shipped with this distribution, accessible as “/status.html” in the default configuration. It requires the locations “/status” and “/status.html” to be configured as shown above.

Directives

status

Syntax: status;

Default: —

Context: location

The status information will be accessible from the surrounding location. Access to this location should be limited.

status_format

Syntax:status_format json; status_format jsonp [callback];

Default: status_format json;

Context: http, server, location

By default, status information is output in the JSON format.

Alternatively, data may be output as JSONP. The callback parameter specifies the name of a callback function. Parameter value can contain variables. If parameter is omitted, or the computed value is an empty string, then “ngx_status_jsonp_callback” is used.

status_zone

Syntax:status_zone zone;

Default: —

Context: server

Enables collection of virtual http or stream (1.7.11) server status information in the specified zone. Several servers may share the same zone.
