Developing
General Workflow
First, determine where the change should go to. As an example, if you would like to change
a file inside lua-nginx-module
, that file could either be rendered through the template engine,
or be simply copied from the src/http
directory as-is without going through the template engine.
To tell which one is the case, look at the first few lines of the generated file. A file rendered by the template engine will have something like this at it's beginning:
/*
* !!! DO NOT EDIT, YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN !!!
* Generated from: src/subsystem/ngx_subsystem_foo.c.tt2
*/
Next, edit the file and use command similar to the following to build the new source code:
$ make SUBSYS=http DESTDIR=../lua-nginx-module/src -j4
Next, update the tests inside the respective repository. In this case, they will be under ../lua-nginx-module/t
.
Finally, create PRs for both the meta-lua-nginx-module
and lua-nginx-module
.
Template Features
All the files under src/subsystem
are valid Perl TT2 files and should be renderable
using the mini-tt2.pl
tool inside this repo, the lemplate
or the official Perl TT2 renderer.
Note: The mini-tt2.pl
tool has been specifically tailored for rendering C source codes and will reformat
to make sure the rendered file follows the general styling guidelines of NGINX and OpenResty projects.
Rendering using other TT2 compatible renderers should yield files that can be build but not necessarily correct
in terms of styling.
In general, you should always use the mini-tt2.pl
tool while working with this repository and only submit
files rendered by it to lua-nginx-module
and stream-lua-nginx-module
. You should also avoid using any TT2 features
that the mini-tt2.pl
tool does not support unless there is a very good reason to do so.
The mini-tt2.pl
tool supports the following subset of TT2 features:
Variable Assignments
[% foo = 'abc' %]
[% SET foo = 'def' %]
Note that SET
is optional and both forms above are equivalent.
Variable Output
[% foo %]
Branching
[% IF foo == 'abc' %]
Foo is abc!
[% ELSIF subsys %]
Foo is not abc!
[% END %]
[% IF foo == 'def' %]
Foo is def!
[% END %]
Comment
[%# this will not appear inside rendered file #%]
Snippet Reuse
[% BLOCK snippet %]
I am a snippet.
[% END %]
[% INCLUDE snippet %]
Hello!
[% PROCESS snippet %]
This will be rendered as:
I am a snippet.
Hello!
I am a snippet.
Note: Passing variables to block is not supported. INCLUDE
and PROCESS
directives
are equivalent.
Built-in Variables
For convenience, the mini-tt2.pl
tool always automatically inject the following variables
into the template context:
Their value depends only on the SUBSYS
option passed when invoking make
.
Note: Variable names in TT2 are case-sensitive.
Variable | Type | Value when SUBSYS == "http" | Value when SUBSYS == "stream" |
---|---|---|---|
subsys | String | "http" | "stream" |
SUBSYS | String | "HTTP" | "STREAM" |
req_type | String | "ngx_http_request_t" | "ngx_stream_lua_request_t" |
req_subsys | String | "http" | "stream_lua" |
http_subsys | Boolean | 1 | 0 |
stream_subsys | Boolean | 0 | 1 |
Whitespace Control
Whitespace control using output modifiers like [% foo -%]
is not necessary. The mini-tt2.pl
tool
always suppresses whitespaces caused by template directives in the rendered files.
