The C<ngx_stream_split_clients_module> module (1.11.3) creates
variables suitable for AE<sol>B testing, also known as split testing.




=head1 Example Configuration




    
    stream {
        ...
        split_clients "${remote_addr}AAA" $upstream {
                      0.5%                feature_test1;
                      2.0%                feature_test2;
                      *                   production;
        }
    
        server {
            ...
            proxy_pass $upstream;
        }
    }

=head2 split_clients


B<syntax:> split_clients I<
    I<C<string>>
    I<C<$variable>> { B<...> } >



B<context:> I<stream>





Creates a variable for AE<sol>B testing, for example:

    
    split_clients "${remote_addr}AAA" $variant {
                   0.5%               .one;
                   2.0%               .two;
                   *                  "";
    }


The value of the original string is hashed using MurmurHash2.
In the example given, hash values from 0 to 21474835 (0.5%)
correspond to the
value C<".one"> of the C<$variant> variable,
hash values from 21474836 to 107374180 (2%) correspond to
the value C<".two">,
and hash values from 107374181 to 4294967295 correspond to
the value C<""> (an empty string).
