Install

Compiles the nginx c module to OpenResty:

./configure --prefix=/opt/openresty \         --add-module=/path/to/lua-var-nginx-module

Install the Lua source code, there are two ways:

luarocks install lua-resty-ngxvar

Or we can copy the source lua file to specified directory which OpenResty canload it normally.

make install LUA_LIB_DIR=/opt/openresty/lualib/

Method

request

syntax: req = ngxvar.request()

Returns the request object of current request. We can cache it at your Lua codeland if we try to fetch more than one variable in one request.
