NGINX Developer Kit

The NDK module makes it easier for module developers to develop NGINX modules.

The NDK module is also a prerequisite for Lua and Set-Misc modules.

Installation Instructions

  1. Install the NDK module.

    For Amazon Linux, CentOS, Oracle Linux, and RHEL:

    $ yum install nginx-plus-module-ndk

    For Debian and Ubuntu:

    $ apt-get install nginx-plus-module-ndk

    For SLES:

    $ zypper install nginx-plus-module-ndk

    For Alpine:

    $ apk add nginx-plus-module-ndk

  2. Put the load_module directive in the top‑level (“main”) context of NGINX Plus configuration file, nginx.conf:

    load_module modules/ndk_http_module.so;

  3. Perform additional configuration as required by the module.

  4. Reload NGINX Plus to enable the module:

    $ nginx -t && nginx -s reload
