nginx files upload streaming with proxy_pass

Question

I configured nginx as reverse proxy to my node.js application for file uploads with proxy_pass directive. It works, but my problem is that nginx waits for the whole file bod

Answer 1

Tengine (a fork from nginx) support unbuffered upload by setting proxy_request_buffering to off.

Updated: in nginx 1.7.11 the proxy_request_buffering directive is available, as @Maxim Dounin mentioned above
