Making external http calls from nginx module

[Sergey Brester]

Hi, 

You can try to use `ngx_http_subrequest` (don't know how good it works
for not an nginx location (or named location)). 

For example see some module used that (ex.:
https://github.com/sebres/nginx/blob/hg-mirror/src/http/modules/ngx_http_auth_request_module.c#L189).


You can also try to use a board directive `post_action` using pure
nginx-config solution, without writing own module - adding it to your
location should call external service specified within (but if I'm not
mistaken still unsupported/undocumented feature). 

Regards,
sebres
