+nginx_tcp_proxy_module - support TCP proxy with Nginx
++
+This module is at its very early phase of development and considered highly experimental. But you're encouraged to test it out on your side and report any quirks that you experience.
+We need your help! If you find this module useful and/or interesting, please consider joining the development!

+This module actually include many modules: ngx_tcp_module, ngx_tcp_core_module, ngx_tcp_upstream_module, ngx_tcp_proxy_module, ngx_tcp_upstream_ip_hash_module. All these modules work togther to add the support of TCP proxy with Nginx. I also add other features: ip_hash, upstream server health check, status monitor.
+The motivation of writing these modules is Nginx's high performance and robustness.

++
+syntax: listen address:port [ bind ]
+default: none
+context: server
+description: The same as listen (http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxMailCoreModule#listen).
++

+description: The same as tcp_nodelay (http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpCoreModule#tcp_nodelay).
++
+syntax: timeout milliseconds
+default: 60000
+context: main, server
+description: set the timeout value with clients.
++
+syntax: server_name name fqdn_server_host
+default: The name of the host, obtained through gethostname()
+context: tcp, server
+description: The same as server_name (http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxMailCoreModule#server_name).
++
+syntax: resolver address
+default: none
+context: tcp, server
+description: DNS server
++
+syntax: resolver_timeout time
+default: 30s
+context: tcp, server
+description: Resolver timeout in seconds.
++
++
+syntax: upstream {...}
+default: none
+context: tcp
+description: All the upstream directives are contained in this block. The upstream server will be dispatched with round robin by default.
++
+syntax: server name [parameters]
+default: none
+context: upstream
+description: Most of the parameters are the same as server (http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpUpstreamModule#server). Default port is 80.
++
+syntax: check interval=milliseconds [fall=count] [rise=count] [timeout=milliseconds] [type=tcp|ssl_hello|smtp|mysql|pop3|imap]
+default: none, if parameters omitted, default parameters are interval=30000 fall=5 rise=2 timeout=1000
+context: upstream
+description: Add the health check for the upstream servers. At present, the check method is a simple tcp connect.
+The parameters' meanings are:
+interval: the check request's interval time.
+fall(fall_count): After fall_count check failures, the server is marked down.
+rise(rise_count): After rise_count check success, the server is marked up.
+timeout: the check request's timeout.
+type: the check protocol type:
+tcp is a simple tcp socket connect and peek one byte.
+ssl_hello sends a client ssl hello packet and receives the server ssl hello packet.
+http sends a http requst packet, recvives and parses the http response to diagnose if the upstream server is alive.
+smtp sends a smtp requst packet, recvives and parses the smtp response to diagnose if the upstream server is alive. The response begins with '2' should be an OK response.
+mysql connects to the mysql server, recvives the greeting response to diagnose if the upstream server is alive.
+pop3 recvives and parses the pop3 response to diagnose if the upstream server is alive. The response begins with '+' should be an OK response.
+imap connects to the imap server, recvives the greeting response to diagnose if the upstream server is alive.
++
+syntax: check_http_send http_packet
+default: "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n"
+context: upstream
+description: If you set the check type is http, then the check function will sends this http packet to check the upstream server.
++
+syntax: check_http_expect_alive [ http_2xx | http_3xx | http_4xx | http_5xx ]
+default: http_2xx | http_3xx
+context: upstream
+description: These status codes indicate the upstream server's http response is ok, the backend is alive.
++
+syntax: check_smtp_send smtp_packet
+default: "HELO smtp.localdomain\r\n"
+context: upstream
+description: If you set the check type is smtp, then the check function will sends this smtp packet to check the upstream server.
++
+syntax: check_smtp_expect_alive [smtp_2xx | smtp_3xx | smtp_4xx | smtp_5xx]
+default: smtp_2xx
+context: upstream
+description: These status codes indicate the upstream server's smtp response is ok, the backend is alive.
++
+syntax: check_shm_size size
+default: (number_of_checked_upstream_blocks + 1) * pagesize
+context: tcp
+description: If you store hundreds of serveres in one upstream block, the shared memory for health check may be not enough, you can enlarged it by this directive.
++
+syntax: check_status
+default: none
+context: location
+description: Display the health checking servers' status by HTTP. This directive is set in the http block.
+ngx_tcp_upstream_ip_hash_module

+Download the latest version of the release tarball of this module from github (http://github.com/yaoweibin/nginx_tcp_proxy_module)
+Grab the nginx source code from nginx.org (http://nginx.org/), for example, the version 0.7.65 (see nginx compatibility), and then build the source with this module:
++ $ wget 'http://nginx.org/download/nginx-0.7.65.tar.gz' + $ tar -xzvf nginx-0.7.65.tar.gz + $ cd nginx-0.7.65/ + $ patch -p1 < /path/to/nginx_tcp_proxy_module/tcp.patch+
+ $ ./configure --add-module=/path/to/nginx_tcp_proxy_module+
+ $ make + $ make install+
+
+My test bed is 0.7.65 and 0.8.34.
++
+The http_response_parse.rl and smtp_response_parse.rl are ragel (http://www.complang.org/ragel/) scripts , you can edit the script and compile it like this:
++ $ ragel -G2 http_response_parse.rl + $ ragel -G2 smtp_response_parse.rl+
