Subject: Unit 1.28. released
Message-ID:  <CY4PR01MB234450F0A6D066F928C97954C3479@CY4PR01MB2344.prod.exchangelabs.com>

Hi NGINX Unit community,

We are happy to announce Unit 1.28! This release sets the first milestone
for observability. It is now possible to get basic information about
connections, requests, and other per-application metrics via our powerful
RESTful JSON API.

In addition, we introduce new variables and the ability to use them to
customize the access log format. Besides the long-awaited statistics and
logging use cases, we also present:

*) Enhanced forward header handling with new configuration syntax and
   X-Forwarded-Proto support.
   
*) Support for abstract Unix domain sockets in listeners on Linux-like
   systems.
   
*) Fixes for several community-reported bugs.

For more information about the new features, visit:
https://unit.nginx.org/news/2022/unit-1.28.0-released/

Changes with Unit 1.28.0                                         13 Sep 2022

*) Change: increased the applications' startup timeout.

*) Change: disallowed abstract Unix domain socket syntax in non-Linux
   systems.

*) Change: increased the applications' startup timeout.

Subject: configure: checking for python....not found
Message-ID: <CAD=KtToztjxWzFrUuDsk_DT+6qWW-PPrJi5+9Xerq6E6BWfdTA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Team,

I am trying hard to get nginx unit running with python 3.9.12 as a module.
Given that the binaries are not available for nginx with this module, I am
trying to compile nginx from source.
The problem is that the ./configure python documentation is not clear for
me.

--config=pathname. : what is this config referring to? my python
3.9.12 installation does not have any config file. Where can I find
more information
about this?

--lib-path=directory: is this the path to the python 3.9.12 lib folder?

Any option that I am using is saying
checking for python....not found
./configure: error: no python found


Regards,
AG

It is quite clear:

$ ./configure python --help

    --config=FILE         set python-config filename
    --module=NAME         set unit python module name
    --lib-path=DIRECTORY  set directory path to libpython.so library

In your case that would be python-config or python3.9-config

Usually you don't need this.  This option is useful when python-config
does not setup path to libpython.

If you installed python via your package manager then perhaps you are
simply missing the python-devel package, exact name will depend on your
distribution.

If you installed it manually yourself into some non-standard directory
then...

This is the path to the python-config script that will say how to build
against the python libraries. E.g

$ which python-config 
/usr/bin/python-config

[ side note
It outputs something like...

$ python-config --cflags --libs
-I/usr/include/python3.10 -I/usr/include/python3.10  -Wno-unused-result
-Wsign-compare  -O2  -fexceptions -g -grecord-gcc-switches -pipe -Wall
-Werror=format-security -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
-Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS  -fstack-protector-strong   -m64
-mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fstack-clash-protection
-fcf-protection -D_GNU_SOURCE -fPIC -fwrapv
-DDYNAMIC_ANNOTATIONS_ENABLED=1 -DNDEBUG  -O2  -fexceptions -g
-grecord-gcc-switches -pipe -Wall -Werror=format-security
-Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS
-fstack-protector-strong   -m64  -mtune=generic
-fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fstack-clash-protection -fcf-protection
-D_GNU_SOURCE -fPIC -fwrapv -lcrypt -ldl  -lm -lm

all that gets passed to the compiler command.
]

You may need this depending on how you installed python.
 
> --lib-path=directory: is this the path to the python 3.9.12 lib folder?

I assume you can use this to say where unit can find the python DSO, e.g

$ locate libpython3.so
/usr/lib64/libpython3.so

That's from the Python3 package installed on Fedora.

Again, if you've installed python in a non-standard location you may
need to specify this.

Subject: unit statistics
Message-ID: <793d3980-4a62-f9ee-c744-679f5309dff5@kappa-velorum.net>

Hello,

I was just testing the new statistics feature, which looks really nice. 
I'm using Unit inside a docker container and the configuration API 
should only be visible inside the container, but I would like to see the 
statistics from the outside. So to solve the problem I added a route 
like this:

{
     "match": {
         "uri": "/status/*"
     },

     "action": {
         "proxy": "http://unix:/opt/unit/unit.sock"
     }
}

This works as expected but now all calls to the /status/ will change the 
stats. So it would be nice if the stats could be disabled for a route or 
if this is not possible for a listener.

I also noticed that my connections object looks like this:
connections": {
     "accepted": 8,
     "active": -41,
     "idle": 0,
     "closed": 49
}

Notice the negative number for "active". For reference the complete 
configuration is this:
https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox-docker/blob/release/docker/nginx-unit.json
+ the additional route as seen above.


Greetings,
Tobias

Hi Tobias,

We are working on it and we have found the cause of the issue.
Likely, we will create an issue on GitHub and share the fixing patch next week.

Thanks for your report.

Hi,
First, We think It is not an ideal way to make an another API proxing to control status API, it looks like a workaround at the moment. We will enhance the security like TLS on the control API in the future.
Secondly, there is no plan to support an option to disable statistic on specific listening or route. But you are welcome to elaborate why it is required after the security on control API is supported.
