Thanks for the fast reply!

So I think I see how this works now; however, I'm getting a new error.
Seems to be parsing related. Here is what I have now:

#define NGX_MY_CUSTOM_MODULE_CONF 0x80000001

static ngx_command_t ngx_my_custom_module_commands[] = {

{

ngx_string("my_custom_module_block"), /* directive */

NGX_HTTP_SRV_CONF |

NGX_HTTP_LOC_CONF |

NGX_CONF_NOARGS |

NGX_CONF_BLOCK,

my_custom_module_block, /* configuration setup function */

0, /* No offset. Only one context is supported. */

0, /* No offset when storing the module configuration on struct. */

NULL

},



{

ngx_string("directive_for_my_custom_module_block"), /* directive */

NGX_CONF_TAKE1|NGX_MY_CUSTOM_MODULE_CONF,

ngx_directive_for_my_custom_module_block_cmd, /* configuration
setup function */
0, /* No offset. Only one context is supported. */

0, /* No offset when storing the module configuration on struct. */

NULL

},



ngx_null_command /* command termination */

};

static char *my_custom_module_block(ngx_conf_t *cf, ngx_command_t *cmd,
void *conf)
{

cf->cmd_type = NGX_MY_CUSTOM_MODULE_CONF;

ngx_http_core_loc_conf_t *clcf;

clcf = ngx_http_conf_get_module_loc_conf(cf, ngx_http_core_module);

clcf->handler = ngx_my_custom_module_handler;

return NGX_CONF_OK;

}


How I'm seeing the following error:

2017/06/28 21:48:46 [emerg] 1#1: "location" directive is not allowed here
in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:26
nginx: [emerg] "location" directive is not allowed here in
/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:26

Here is my full configuration file:

worker_processes 1;

load_module "modules/ngx_my_custom_module.so";

events {
worker_connections 1024;
}

http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;

sendfile on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;

location / {
my_custom_module_block {
directive_for_my_custom_module_block "Some value";
}
}

error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root html;
}
}
}
