Name

ngx-http-status-code-counter - Nginx module to keep a count of sent HTTP status codes

This is a fairly simple module for the nginx webserver that simply keeps a count of HTTP status codes. I made it to feed data to the included munin plugin so I can keep track of changes in http status code distributions.

Most of the code is based on the http-stub-status module that comes with the nginx distribution.

This is my first Nginx module and it is still very early. Please feel free to play around with it and/or submit patches!

I've included a sample munin plugin that uses ruby and the excellent munin_plugin gem.

Example Config

server {
    location /status-codes {
        show_status_code_count on;
    }
}

Sample Output (in JSON)

{"uptime":12313,"200":196333,"204":25244311,"302":614,"404":3,"499":396943}

Installation

  1. Download this module or clone it.

  2. Get the nginx source code from wiki.nginx.org. I've only used this module so far with 0.8.50

     $ wget 'http://sysoev.ru/nginx/nginx-0.8.50.tar.gz'
     $ tar -xzvf nginx-0.8.50.tar.gz
     $ cd nginx-0.8.50/
     
     # Here we assume you would install you nginx under /opt/nginx/.
     $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/nginx \
         --add-module=/path/to/ngx_http_status_code_counter
     
     $ make
     $ make install
    

Compatibility

This has only been tried on 0.8.x, not sure if it works with 0.7.x

  • 0.8.x (last tested version is 0.8.50)
  • 1.6.x (last tested version is 1.6.2 by Rogerio Goncalves)

Todo

  • Figure out how to write some tests for this.
  • Add hit/miss/bypass proxy cache counters
