Using ngx_http_copy_filter_module as an example:

First, you need to declare module you want to access:
"ngx_module_t  ngx_http_copy_filter_module;"

and then you can access it's context using:
"r->ctx[ngx_http_copy_filter_module.ctx_index]"

Same applies to r->main_conf, r->srv_conf and r->loc_conf.
