I want a web server based on nginx, which receives a HTTP message, parses it and checks in Redis for a given key's value and send back a response, all this has to be done asynchronously / non-blocking read/write from Redis. Is it possible ? I went through articles which suggested to register events to nginx's loop.

See here https://github.com/chaoslawful/lua-nginx-module
most if not all already done.

nginx for Windows http://nginx-win.ecsds.eu/

thanks, i have gone through that repo before. Its very hard to understand what is written there, do you have any tutorials on them ?

You can read the forum here https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/openresty-en
or download all the stuff of my site in sig. and look through the Lua examples, especially the /conf/eblb folder.

I'm also interested in this subject, but my problem is little bit different. What I want is to post event from other thread to nginx main thread, something like ngx_add_timer but without time option, to safelty add event to nginx main event loop.
