+# nginx
+
+This module will monitor one or more nginx servers depending on configuration. Servers can be either local or remote.
+
+**Requirements:**
+ * nginx with configured 'ngx_http_stub_status_module'
+ * 'location /stub_status'
+
+Example nginx configuration can be found in 'python.d/nginx.conf'
+
+It produces following charts:
+
+1. **Active Connections**
+ * active
+
+2. **Requests** in requests/s
+ * requests
+
+3. **Active Connections by Status**
+ * reading
+ * writing
+ * waiting
+
+4. **Connections Rate** in connections/s
+ * accepts
+ * handled
+
+### configuration
+
+Needs only `url` to server's `stub_status`
+
+Here is an example for local server:
+
+```yaml
+update_every : 10
+priority     : 90100
+
+local:
+  url     : 'http://localhost/stub_status'
+  retries : 10
+```
+
+Without configuration, module attempts to connect to `http://localhost/stub_status`
