Name

iconv-nginx-module

Table of Contents

Description

This is a nginx module that uses libiconv to convert characters of different encoding. It brings the 'set_iconv' command to nginx.

This module depends on the ngx_devel_kit(NDK) module.

Usage

set_iconv

syntax: set_iconv <destination_variable> <from_variable> from=<from_encoding> to=<to_encoding>

default: none

phase: rewrite

Back to TOC

iconv_buffer_size

syntax: iconv_buffer_size <size>

default: iconv_buffer_size <pagesize>

Back to TOC

iconv_filter

syntax: iconv_filter from=<from_encoding> to=<to_encoding>

default: none

phase: output-filter

Here is a basic example:

 #nginx.conf

 location /foo {
     set $src '你好'; #in UTF-8
     set_iconv $dst $src from=utf8 to=gbk; #now $dst holds 你好 in GBK
 }

 #everything generated from /foo will be converted from utf8 to gbk
 location /bar {
     iconv_filter from=utf-8 to=gbk;
     iconv_buffer_size 1k;
     #content handler here
 }

Installation

 tar -xzvf nginx-1.9.15.tar.gz
 cd nginx-1.9.15/

 git-clone http://github.com/simpl-it/ngx_devel_kit.git
 git-clone http://github.com/calio/form-input-module.git

 ./configure --add-module=/path/to/iconv-nginx-module/ --add-module=/path/to/ngx_devel_kit
 make -j2
 make install

Building as a dynamic module

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 directive, for example,

load_module /path/to/modules/ndk_http_module.so;  # assuming NDK is built as a dynamic module too
load_module /path/to/modules/ngx_http_iconv_module.so;
