with the non-seo url.
Here’s a sample configuration that has been tested on my laptop.
Consider you seo uri is /baz, the true uri is /foo/bar. And I have the
following table in my local mysql “test” database:
create table my_url_map(id serial, url text, seo_url);
insert into my_url_map(url, seo_url)values(‘/foo/bar’, ‘/baz’);
And I build my nginx 0.8.41 this way:
./configure \
--add-module=/path/to/ngx_devel_kit \
--add-module=/path/to/set-misc-nginx-module \
--add-module=/path/to/ngx_http_auth_request_module-0.2 \
--add-module=/path/to/echo-nginx-module \
--add-module=/path/to/lua-nginx-module \
--add-module=/path/to/drizzle-nginx-module \
--add-module=/path/to/rds-json-nginx-module
Also, I have lua 5.1.4 and the lua-yajl library installed to my system.
And here’s the central part in my nginx.conf:
upstream backend {
drizzle_server 127.0.0.1:3306 dbname=test
password=some_pass user=monty protocol=mysql;
drizzle_keepalive max=300 mode=single overflow=ignore;
}
lua_package_cpath '/path/to/your/lua/yajl/library/?.so';
server {
...
location /conv-mysql {
internal;
set_quote_sql_str $seo_uri $query_string; # to prevent sql
injection
drizzle_query “select url from my_url_map where
seo_url=$seo_uri”;
drizzle_pass backend;
rds_json on;
}
location /conv-uid {
internal;
content_by_lua_file 'html/foo.lua';
}
location /jump {
internal;
rewrite ^ $query_string? redirect;
}
# your SEO uri
location /baz {
set $my_uri $uri;
auth_request /conv-uid;
echo_exec /jump $my_uri;
}
Then let’s access /baz from the client side:
$ curl -i localhost:1984/baz
HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily
Server: nginx/0.8.41 (without pool)
Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2010 03:28:42 GMT
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 176
Location: http://localhost:1984/foo/bar
Connection: keep-alive
<html>
<head><title>302 Found</title></head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<center><h1>302 Found</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx/0.8.41 (without pool)</center>
</body>
</html>
We can optimize this further by introducing ngx_srcache, ngx_memc and
memcached clusters with connection pooling to cache our mysql result
sets. But I’d keep this sample config minimal for now
If anybody is
interested, just follow up and ask here 
Note that 0.8.42+ won’t work for this config, and the request will
hang for reasons that I don’t know yet. We do not have the resource to
track all the aggressive changes in recent nginx core and that’s no
fun at all.
