Synopsis
========
```nginx
http {
upstream foo.com {
server 127.0.0.1 fail_timeout=53 weight=4 max_fails=100;
server agentzh.org:81;
}
upstream bar {
server 127.0.0.2;
}
server {
listen 8080;
# sample output for the following /upstream interface:
# upstream foo.com:
# addr = 127.0.0.1:80, weight = 4, fail_timeout = 53, max_fails = 100
# addr = 106.184.1.99:81, weight = 1, fail_timeout = 10, max_fails = 1
# upstream bar:
# addr = 127.0.0.2:80, weight = 1, fail_timeout = 10, max_fails = 1

Functions
=========
[Back to TOC](#table-of-contents)
get_upstreams
-------------
`syntax: names = upstream.get_upstreams()`
Get a list of the names for all the named upstream groups (i.e., explicit `upstream {}` blocks).
Note that implicit upstream groups created by `proxy_pass` and etc are excluded.
[Back to TOC](#table-of-contents)
get_servers
-----------
`syntax: servers = upstream.get_servers(upstream_name)`
Get configurations for all the servers in the specified upstream group. Please note that one server may take multiple addresses when its server name can be resolved to multiple addresses.
The return value is an array-like Lua table. Each table entry is a hash-like Lua table that takes the following keys:
* addr
socket address(es). can be either a Lua string or an array-like Lua table of Lua strings.
* backup
* fail_timeout
* max_fails
* name
* weight
[Back to TOC](#table-of-contents)
get_primary_peers
-----------------
`syntax: peers = upstream.get_primary_peers(upstream_name)`
Get configurations for all the primary (non-backup) peers in the specified upstream group.
The return value is an array-like Lua table for all the primary peers. Each table entry is a (nested) hash-like Lua table that takes the following keys:
* current_weight
* effective_weight
* fail_timeout
* fails
* id
Identifier (ID) for the peer. This ID can be used to reference a peer in a group in the peer modifying API.
* max_fails
* name
Socket address for the current peer
* weight
* accessed
Timestamp for the last access (in seconds since the Epoch)
* checked
Timestamp for the last check (in seconds since the Epoch)
* down
Holds true if the peer has been marked as "down", otherwise this key is not present
* conns
Number of active connections to the peer (this requires NGINX 1.9.0 or above).
[Back to TOC](#table-of-contents)
get_backup_peers
----------------
`syntax: peers = upstream.get_backup_peers(upstream_name)`
Get configurations for all the backup peers in the specified upstream group.
The return value has the same structure as [get_primary_peers](#get_primary_peers) function.
[Back to TOC](#table-of-contents)
set_peer_down
-------------
`syntax: ok, err = upstream.set_peer_down(upstream_name, is_backup, peer_id, down_value)`
Set the "down" (boolean) attribute of the specified peer.
To uniquely specify a peer, you need to specify the upstream name, whether or not it is a backup peer, and the peer id (starting from 0).
Note that this method only changes the peer settings in the current Nginx worker
process. You need to synchronize the changes across all the Nginx workers yourself if you
want a server-wide change (for example, by means of [ngx_lua](https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module#ngxshareddict)'s [ngx.shared.DICT](https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module#ngxshareddict)).
Below is an example. Consider we have a "bar" upstream block in `nginx.conf`:
```nginx
upstream bar {
server 127.0.0.2;
server 127.0.0.3 backup;
server 127.0.0.4 fail_timeout=23 weight=7 max_fails=200 backup;
}
```
then
```lua
upstream.set_peer_down("bar", false, 0, true)
```
will turn down the primary peer corresponding to `server 127.0.0.2`.
Similarly,
```lua
upstream.set_peer_down("bar", true, 1, true)
```
will turn down the backup peer corresponding to `server 127.0.0.4 ...`.
You can turn on a peer again by providing a `false` value as the 4th argument.

current_upstream_name
---------------------
`syntax: name = upstream.current_upstream_name()`
Returns the name of the proxied upstream for the current request.
If there is no upstream for this request (no `proxy_pass` call), or this
function is called in a phase prior to the content phase, then the return value
will be `nil`. If a port is explicitly included in the upstream definition or
`proxy_pass` directive, it will be included in the return value of this function.
Example:
```lua
-- upstream my_upstream { ... }
-- proxy_pass http://my_upstream;
upstream.current_upstream_name() --> my_upstream
-- proxy_pass http://example.com:1234;
upstream.current_upstream_name() --> example.com:1234
```
Note that implicit upstreams created by `proxy_pass` are included, contrary to
the output of `upstream.get_upstreams()`.

TODO
====
* Add API to add or remove servers to existing upstream groups.

Installation
============
This module is bundled and enabled by default in the [OpenResty](http://openresty.org) bundle. And you are recommended to use OpenResty.
1. Grab the nginx source code from [nginx.org](http://nginx.org/), for example,
the version 1.11.2 (see [nginx compatibility](#compatibility)),
2. then grab the source code of the [ngx_lua](https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module#installation) as well as its dependencies like [LuaJIT](http://luajit.org/download.html).
3. and finally build the source with this module:
```bash
wget 'http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.11.2.tar.gz'
tar -xzvf nginx-1.11.2.tar.gz
cd nginx-1.11.2/
# assuming your luajit is installed to /opt/luajit:
export LUAJIT_LIB=/opt/luajit/lib
# assuming you are using LuaJIT v2.1:
export LUAJIT_INC=/opt/luajit/include/luajit-2.1
# Here we assume you would install you nginx under /opt/nginx/.
./configure --prefix=/opt/nginx \
--with-ld-opt="-Wl,-rpath,$LUAJIT_LIB" \
--add-module=/path/to/lua-nginx-module \
--add-module=/path/to/lua-upstream-nginx-module
make -j2
make install
```
Starting from NGINX 1.9.11, you can also compile this module as a dynamic module, by using the `--add-dynamic-module=PATH` option instead of `--add-module=PATH` on the
`./configure` command line above. And then you can explicitly load the module in your `nginx.conf` via the [load_module](http://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#load_module)
directive, for example,
```nginx
load_module /path/to/modules/ngx_http_lua_upstream_module.so;
```
