- link in psol - manipulate the buffer chain to add a 'processed by us' comment - use chunked encoding to we don't have to update the headers when we change the length of the request - use c++ for the module
ngx_pagespeed
This is the nginx port of mod_pagespeed.
How to build
nginx does not support dynamic loading of modules. You need to add ngx_pagespeed as a build time dependency, and to do that you have to first build the pagespeed optimization library.
First build mod_pagespeed, following these instructions: http://code.google.com/p/modpagespeed/wiki/HowToBuild
Then move the mod_pagespeed directory to a parallel directory to your ngx_pagespeed checkout:
$ cd /path/to/ngx_pagespeed
$ mv /where/you/built/mod_pagespeed /path/to/mod_pagespeed
Now build nginx:
$ cd /path/to/nginx
$ auto/configure --add-module=/path/to/ngx_pagespeed
$ make install
While ngx_pagespeed doesn't need to be anywhere specific in relation to nginx, the mod_pagespeed directory and the ngx_pagespeed directory must have the same parent.
How to use
To your nginx.conf add to the main block or to a server or location block:
pagespeed on;
Then fetch a page and note that it adds a comment:
<!-- Processed through ngx_pagespeed using PSOL version 0.10.0.0 -->
That's all it does so far.
