JoyJava, update your homebrew -> brew update

brew --version
Homebrew 1.1.10
Homebrew/homebrew-core (git revision 697d; last commit 2017-02-22)

Try this for

 brew install homebrew/nginx/nginx-full --with-lua-module --with-set-misc-module

Thanks for commenting on an old post @adong, exactly what i needed.

New year, new steps to do it:
brew tap denji/nginx
brew install homebrew/nginx/nginx-full --with-lua-module --with-set-misc-module

https://github.com/denji/homebrew-nginx

Since homebrew/nginx is deprecated, using:

brew tap denji/nginx; 
brew install nginx-full --with-lua-module --with-set-misc-module

worked for me
