Hello,

any chance to debug the -f function? I use the debug log, but get no information about the file... /body1 shows me "test" but /body2 shows nothing... no error, no body content...

Because there's no error in your /body2 request, no log is expected to be printed ;)

location /body1 { echo_subrequest POST /sub -b 'test'; }

location /body2 { echo_subrequest POST /sub -f /tmp/hello.txt; }

location /sub { echo "body: $echo_request_body"; }

Why $echo_request_body is empty for /body2? Because "echo_subrequest /sub -f /tmp/hello.txt" produces a request body that consists of *file* buffers only (such that nginx does not bother reading the whole disk file into RAM at once) and $echo_request_body only respects pure *memory* buffers.

The following example comes from the ngx_echo's test suite:

location /main { echo_subrequest POST /sub -f html/blah.txt; }

location /sub { echo "sub method: $echo_request_method"; # we don't need to call echo_read_client_body explicitly here echo_request_body; }

where html/blah.txt contains the following contents:

Hello, world

Then GET /main gives

sub method: POST Hello, world
