NGINX JavaScript examples

Examples

Running inside Docker:

git clone https://github.com/xeioex/njs-examples
cd njs-examples
EXAMPLE='hello'
docker run --rm --name njs_example  -v $(pwd)/conf/$EXAMPLE.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro  -v $(pwd)/njs/$EXAMPLE.js:/etc/nginx/example.js:ro -p 80:80 -p 8090:8090 -d nginx

# Stopping.
docker stop njs_example

Hello world [hello]

nginx.conf:

 load_module modules/ngx_http_js_module.so;

 events {}

 http {
   js_include example.js;

   server {
     listen 80;

     location /version {
        js_content version;
     }

     location /hello {
       js_content hello;
     }
  }
}

example.js:

function version(r) {
  r.return(200, njs.version);
}

function hello(r) {
  r.return(200, "Hello world!\n");
}

Checking:

curl http://localhost/hello

Getting arbitrary field from JWT as a nginx variable [jwt]

nginx.conf:

...

http {
    js_include example.js;

    js_set $jwt_payload_sub jwt_payload_sub;

    server {
...
          location /jwt {
              return 200 $jwt_payload_sub;
          }
    }
}

example.js:

function jwt(data) {
    var parts = data.split('.').slice(0,2)
        .map(v=>String.bytesFrom(v, 'base64url'))
        .map(JSON.parse);
    return { headers:parts[0], payload: parts[1] };
}

function jwt_payload_sub(r) {
    return jwt(r.headersIn.Authorization.slice(7)).payload.sub;
}

Checking:

curl 'http://localhost/jwt' -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsImV4cCI6MTU4NDcyMzA4NX0.eyJpc3MiOiJuZ2lueCIsInN1YiI6ImFsaWNlIiwiZm9vIjoxMjMsImJhciI6InFxIiwienl4IjpmYWxzZX0.Kftl23Rvv9dIso1RuZ8uHaJ83BkKmMtTwch09rJtwgk"

Generating JWT token [gen_hs_jwt]

nginx.conf:

env JWT_GEN_KEY;

...

http {
    js_include example.js;

    js_set $jwt jwt;

    server {
...
          location /jwt {
              return 200 $jwt;
          }
    }
}

example.js:

function generate_hs256_jwt(claims, key, valid) {
    var header = { typ: "JWT",
                   alg: "HS256",
                   exp: Math.floor(Date.now()/1000) + valid };

    var s = [header, claims].map(JSON.stringify)
                            .map(v=>v.toBytes())
                            .map(v=>v.toString('base64url'))
                            .join('.');

    var h = require('crypto').createHmac('sha256', key);

    return s + '.' + h.update(s).digest().toString('base64url');
}

function jwt(r) {
    var claims = {

Subrequests join [join_subrequests]

Combining the results of several subrequests asynchronously into a single JSON reply.

nginx.conf:

 ...

 http {
     js_include example.js;

     server {
           listen 80;

           location /join {
               js_content join;
           }

           location /foo {
               proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
           }

           location /bar {
               proxy_pass http://localhost:8090;
           }
     }
}

example.js:

function join(r) {
    join_subrequests(r, ['/foo', '/bar']);
}

function join_subrequests(r, subs) {
    var parts = [];

    function done(reply) {
        parts.push({ uri:  reply.uri,
                     code: reply.status,
                     body: reply.responseBody });

        if (parts.length == subs.length) {
            r.return(200, JSON.stringify(parts));
        }
    }

    for (var i in subs) {
        r.subrequest(subs[i], done);
    }
}

Subrequests chaining [subrequests_chaining]

Subrequests chaining using JS promises.

nginx.conf:

 ...

 http {
     js_include example.js;

     server {
           listen 80;

           location / {
               js_content process;
           }

           location = /auth {
               internal;
               proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
           }

           location = /backend {
               internal;
               proxy_pass http://localhost:8090;
           }
     }

     ...
}

example.js:

function process(r) {
    r.subrequest('/auth')
        .then(reply => JSON.parse(reply.responseBody))
        .then(response => {
            if (!response['token']) {
                throw new Error("token is not available");
            }
            return response['token'];
        })
    .then(token => {
        r.subrequest('/backend', `token=${token}`)
            .then(reply => r.return(reply.status, reply.responseBody));
    })
    .catch(e => r.return(500, e));
}

function authenticate(r) {
    if (r.headersIn.Authorization.slice(7) === 'secret') {
        r.return(200, JSON.stringify({status: "OK", token:42}));
        return;
    }

    r.return(403, JSON.stringify({status: "INVALID"}));
}

function backend(r) {
    r.return(200, `Token is ${r.args.token}`);
}

Checking:

nginx.conf:

env JWT_GEN_KEY;

...

http {
    js_include example.js;

    js_set $new_foo create_secure_link;

    server {
          listen 80;

          ...

          location /secure/ {
              error_page 403 = @login;

              secure_link $cookie_foo;
              secure_link_md5 "$uri mykey";

              if ($secure_link = "") {
                      return 403;
              }

              proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
          }

          location @login {
              add_header Set-Cookie "foo=$new_foo; Max-Age=60";
              return 302 $request_uri;
          }
    }
}

example.js:

function create_secure_link(r) {
  return require('crypto').createHash('md5')
                          .update(r.uri).update(process.env.JWT_GEN_KEY)
                          .digest('base64url');

File IO [file_io]

example.js:

var STORAGE = "/tmp/njs_storage"

function push(r) {
        fs.appendFileSync(STORAGE, r.requestBody);
        r.return(200);

Choosing upstream in stream based on the underlying protocol [stream/detect_http]

nginx.conf:

...

stream {
      js_include example.js;

      js_set $upstream upstream;

      upstream httpback {
          server 127.0.0.1:8080;
      }

      upstream tcpback {
          server 127.0.0.1:3001;
      }

      server {
            listen 80;

            js_preread  preread;

            proxy_pass $upstream;
      }
}

example.js:

var is_http = 0;

function preread(s) {
    s.on('upload', function (data, flags) {
        var n = data.indexOf('\r\n');
        if (n != -1 && data.substr(0, n - 1).endsWith(" HTTP/1.")) {
            is_http = 1;
        }

        if (data.length || flags.last) {
            s.done();
        }
    });
}

function upstream(s) {
    return is_http ? "httpback" : "tcpback";
}
