Hi all, Sorry for posting to nginx-devel but looking to see if I'm missing any details. I'm building a service discovery integration on top of our Nginx, things work fine but there are two caveats:
- Nginx does not allow you to start with an empty upstream (aka no hosts). - Nginx errors out with invalid configuration if you set a weight to "0". I'm wondering if there is any technical reason of why I _should not_ make a patch that would allow the weight to be 0 during startup configuration (or reload), looking specifically at this: https://github.com/nginx/nginx/blob/cb4dd56771c1af082bf3e810436712b4f48f2cf2/src/http/ngx_http_upstream.c#L5839 or... if there is a known patch that does this already then even better. We have a module that allows us set the weights dynamically via a URL we have without reloading nginx (we can't execute continuous reloads since our buffers are maxed out so this could potentially throw the host into a OOM case). Thanks! -- Pablo _______________________________________________ nginx-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx-devel
