Nginx modules reference guide

Hi all.

I have started to write a complete reference to all modules available in
Nginx.

It is a simple cut and paste from Nginx source code; I have tried to
document the type of modules available and their relations.

I hope that this will help to solve some of the confusion about Nginx
modules.
As an example, the Google Perftools is not an HTTP module; and the
“main” module (as documented in the wiki) is actually several modules.

The document can be found here
http://mperillo.ath.cx/NGINX_MODULES.html

The source (in reStructuredText format):
http://mperillo.ath.cx/NGINX_MODULES.rst

TODO:

  • additional HTTP modules
  • mail modules
