+    * `:base_url` - Location where to find the NIFs from. This should be one of the following:
+
+      * A URL to a directory containing the NIFs. The name of the NIF will be appended to it

+
+      * A tuple of `{URL, headers}`. The headers should be a list of key-value pairs.
+        This is useful when the NIFs are hosted in a private server.
+
+      * A tuple of `{module, function}` where the `function` is an atom representing the function
+        name in that module. It's expected a function of arity 1, where the NIF file name is given,
+        and it should return a URL or a tuple of `{URL, headers}`.
+        This should be used for all cases not covered by the above.
+        For example when multiple requests have to be made, like when using a private GitHub release
+        through the GitHub API, or when the URLs don't resemble a simple directory.
