This nginx module is still under development， you can help improve and it.
The project is also well developed in development, and you are welcome to contribute code, or report bugs. Together to make it better.

When you use nginx as a load balancer, nginx natively provides only basic retries to ensure access to a normal backend server.
In contrast, this nginx third-party module provides proactive health State Detection for back-end servers.
It maintains a list of back-end servers that guarantee that new requests are sent directly to a healthy back-end server.
Key features:
- Supports health detection for both four-tier and seven-tier back-end servers
- Four-layer supported detection type:
tcp/udp/http - Seven-layer supported detection Type:
http/fastcgi - Provide a unified http status query interface, output format:
html/json/csv/prometheus - Provide a unified http status query interface, output format:
html/json/csv/prometheus - Support judge status according to http response code or body like
check_http_expect_body ~ ".+OK.+";

root@changxun-PC:~/nginx-dev/ngx_healthcheck_module# Syntax
check interval=milliseconds [fall=count] [rise=count] [timeout=milliseconds] [default_down=true|false] [type=tcp|udp|http] [port=check_port]
Default: interval=30000 fall=5 rise=2 timeout=1000 default_down=true type=tcp
Context: http/upstream || stream/upstream
This command can open the back-end server health check function.
Detail
interval: the interval of the health check packet sent to the backend.fall(fall_count): the server is considered down if the number of consecutive failures reaches fall_count.rise(rise_count): the server is considered up if the number of consecutive successes reaches rise_count.timeout: timeout for the back-end health request.default_down: set the initial state of the server, if it is true, it means that the default is down, if it is false, is up. The default value is true, which is the beginning of the server that is not available, to wait for the health check package reaches a certain number of times after the success will be considered healthy.type: type of health check pack, now supports the following typestcp: simple tcp connection, if the connection is successful, it shows the back-end normal.udp: simple to send udp packets, if you receive icmp error (host or port unreachable), it shows the back-end exception.(Only UDP type checking is supported in the stream configuration block)http: send an HTTP request, by the state of the back-end reply packet to determine whether the back-end survival.
A example as followed:
stream {
upstream tcp-cluster {
# simple round-robin
server 127.0.0.1:22;
server 192.168.0.2:22;
check interval=3000 rise=2 fall=5 timeout=5000 default_down=true type=tcp;
}
server {
listen 522;
proxy_pass tcp-cluster;
}
...
}Syntax: healthcheck_status [html|csv|json|prometheus]
Default: healthcheck_status html
Context: http/server/location
A example as followed:
http {
server {
listen 80;
# status interface
location /status {
healthcheck_status;
}
...
}You can specify the default display format. The formats can be html,
csv or json. The default type is html. It also supports to specify
the format by the request argument. Suppose your check_status location
is '/status', the argument of format can change the display page's
format. You can do like this:
/status?format=html
/status?format=csv
/status?format=json
/status?format=prometheus
At present, you can fetch the list of servers with the same status by
the argument of status. For example:
/status?format=json&status=down
/status?format=html&status=down
/status?format=csv&status=up
/status?format=prometheus&status=up
- add testcase.
- code style.
- feature enhance.
