BTW, you could have written the Lua code like this:
local m = ngx.re.match(ngx.var.request_method, “GET|POST|HEAD”, “io”)
if not m then
ngx.exit(400)
end
Does ngx_lua support the appropriate “501 Not Implemented” for this?
A search took me to ngx_http_lua_consts.c but it doesn’t seem to be
there.
Also didn’t realise I could use the actual code instead of a constant.
Is it possible to issue any status code or are we limited to those in
ngx_http_lua_consts.c?

Sure. Just use ngx.exit(501) for it.

The constants defined there are just for improving Lua code readability.

You can use any status code. See

BTW, I’ve already added constant ngx.HTTP_METHOD_NOT_IMPLEMENTED to
ngx_lua v0.3.1rc12:
