cookie不同于session,一个存于客户端,一个存于服务端。
环境nginx 1.8.0
centos6.X
sticky:1.2.5 wget https://bitbucket.org/nginx-goodies/nginx-sticky-module-ng/get/master.tar.gz
cookie负载均衡相比iphash来比其中一个特点比较明显:内网nat用户的均衡。而iphash无法做到。
yum install openssl openssl-devel
先停止nginx服务。在给nginx添加模块。
将同版本的nginx包从新解压一份出来。当然同事也讲下载的sticky模块也解压并从命名成nginx-sticky-module
tar -zxf master.tar.gz
mv nginx-goodies-nginx-sticky-module-ng-c78b7dd79d0d nginx-sticky-module
killall nginx
(如果想查看sticky的版本,可以在changelog.txt里查看和改动)
添加模块:
我原来nginx的安装路径是:/usr/local/nginx (添加模块时,之前的配置和模块也需要加上)因为这些都需要写到nginx这个二进制文件中。
查看之前安装了什么模块使用 /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx -V (大写的V哦。和我名字一样)
将之前的待上进行编译
./configure --user=www --group=www --prefix=/usr/local/nginx --with-http_stub_status_module --with-http_ssl_module --add-module=/root/nginx-sticky-module
因为我之前就2个模块。
然后我们make就好。 make install就不需要了,那是重新安装。
我们编译完成之后,在当前目录下会有一个objs,里面有nginx文件,就是我们make生成的二进制文件,然后将这个文件拷贝到/usr/local/nginx/sbin (之前的nginx最好备份一下,以免发生错误好恢复)
至此 nginx 添加模块成功。 我们直接在nginx配置文件中引用就好。如下图
当然你也可以设置sticky的一些参数,比如sticky的缓存时间,作用于之类的。这里详细查看可以查询sticky解压包里的readme如下

balancing system won't be fair.
Using a cookie to track the upstream server makes each browser unique.
When the sticky module can't apply, it switchs back to the classic Round Robin Upstream or returns a "Bad Gateway" (depending on the no_fallback flag).
Sticky module can't apply when cookies are not supported by the browser

# Description
A nginx module to add a sticky cookie to be always forwarded to the same upstream server.
When dealing with several backend servers, it's sometimes useful that one client (browser) is always served by the same backend server (for session persistance for example).
Using a persistance by IP (with the ip_hash upstream module) is maybe not a good idea because there could be situations where a lot of different browsers are coming with the same IP address (behind proxies)and the load balancing system won't be fair.
Using a cookie to track the upstream server makes each browser unique.
When the sticky module can't apply, it switchs back to the classic Round Robin Upstream or returns a "Bad Gateway" (depending on the no_fallback flag).
Sticky module can't apply when cookies are not supported by the browser
> Sticky module is based on a "best effort" algorithm. Its aim is not to handle > security somehow. It's been made to ensure that normal users are always > redirected to the same backend server: that's all!
# Installation
You'll need to re-compile Nginx from source to include this module. Modify your compile of Nginx by adding the following directive (modified to suit your path of course):
./configure ... --add-module=/absolute/path/to/nginx-sticky-module-ng make make install
# Usage
upstream { sticky; server 127.0.0.1:9000; server 127.0.0.1:9001; server 127.0.0.1:9002; }
sticky [name=route] [domain=.foo.bar] [path=/] [expires=1h] [hash=index|md5|sha1] [no_fallback] [secure] [httponly];
- name: the name of the cookies used to track the persistant upstream srv; default: route
- domain: the domain in which the cookie will be valid default: nothing. Let the browser handle this.
- path: the path in which the cookie will be valid default: /
- expires: the validity duration of the cookie default: nothing. It's a session cookie. restriction: must be a duration greater than one second
- hash: the hash mechanism to encode upstream server. It cant' be used with hmac. default: md5
- md5|sha1: well known hash - index: it's not hashed, an in-memory index is used instead, it's quicker and the overhead is shorter Warning: the matching against upstream servers list is inconsistent. So, at reload, if upstreams servers has changed, index values are not guaranted to correspond to the same server as before! USE IT WITH CAUTION and only if you need to!
- hmac: the HMAC hash mechanism to encode upstream server It's like the hash mechanism but it uses hmac_key to secure the hashing. It can't be used with hash. md5|sha1: well known hash default: none. see hash.
- hmac_key: the key to use with hmac. It's mandatory when hmac is set default: nothing.
- no_fallback: when this flag is set, nginx will return a 502 (Bad Gateway or Proxy Error) if a request comes with a cookie and the corresponding backend is unavailable.
- secure enable secure cookies; transferred only via https - httponly enable cookies not to be leaked via js # Detail Mechanism
- see docs/sticky.{vsd,pdf}
# Issues and Warnings:
- when using different upstream-configs with stickyness that use the same domain but refer to different location - configs it might be wise to set a different path / route - option on each of this upstream-configs like described here: https://bitbucket.org/nginx-goodies/nginx-sticky-module-ng/issue/7/leaving-cookie-path-empty-in-module
- sticky module does not work with the "backup" option of the "server" configuration item. - sticky module might work with the nginx_http_upstream_check_module (up from version 1.2.3) - sticky module may require to configure nginx with SSL support (when using "secure" option)
