The Nginx upload module is an extension module for the Nginx web server that allows handling file uploads. It provides additional functionality and configuration options for processing file uploads in HTTP requests.
To use the Nginx upload module, you need to compile Nginx from source with the module included or use a precompiled version of Nginx that already has the upload module enabled. Here are the general steps to enable and configure the upload module:
- Download the source code of Nginx and extract it.
- Obtain the source code of the upload module from its official GitHub repository (https://github.com/fdintino/nginx-upload-module).
- Modify your Nginx configuration file (
nginx.conf) to include the necessary directives for enabling and configuring the upload module. - Compile and install Nginx with the configured upload module.
Here is an example configuration snippet to enable file uploads using the upload module:
http {
# ... other configuration options ...
server {
# ... server configuration ...
location /upload {
# Enable file uploads
upload_pass /upload_endpoint;
# Store uploaded files in a specific directory
upload_store /path/to/store;
# Set maximum allowed size for uploaded files
client_max_body_size 10m;
# Set additional parameters if needed
upload_set_form_field $upload_field_name.name "$upload_file_name";
upload_set_form_field $upload_field_name.content_type "$upload_content_type";
upload_set_form_field $upload_field_name.path "$upload_tmp_path";
}
location /upload_endpoint {
# Handle actual file uploads
proxy_pass http://backend_server;
}
}
}
Please note that this is just a basic example, and you may need to adjust it according to your specific requirements and environment.
Remember to thoroughly test your configuration and ensure proper security measures are in place when allowing file uploads on your server.
For detailed instructions and additional configuration options, please refer to the official documentation of the Nginx upload module.
