Hi,

I'm proud to announce the availability of the version 0.4 of the nginx_upload_progress_module. This version is now compatible with multiple worker_process.

As usual the module is available as an attachment to the wiki page: http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpUploadProgressModule

I will try to setup a public git repository of the module soon.

Changes since v0.3: ===================

* Incompatible change: track_uploads MUST be the last directive of a location. It also must be in a proxy_pass or fastcgi_pass location.

* fixed multiple worker_process issue. It is now safe to use this module with multiple worker_process.

* fixed several crash issues.

More Information: =================

This module implements a progress upload ala Lighttpd mod_uploadprogress for nginx. It monitors RFC1867 uploads sent to upstream servers and can serve special JSON response containing information about the upload progress on request.

This module doesn't implement a RFC1867 parser and client code. As such I consider this module as a temporary hack until Igor Sysoev implements a full client body filter chain into Nginx.

This module is delivered as is (no guarantee of any kind) under the BSD license with the following caveats and warnings: * this software has never been tested under load. It only passed a few lab tests (including stress testing of upload and tracking uploads). * it is not intended to be deployed on *production systems*. * when compiled with --with-debug, this module will produce high number of log messages.

More information on the wiki page: http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpUploadProgressModule

The code is available as an attachment of the aforementionned page.

Installation instructions: ==========================

nginx_uploadprogress_module has been compiled/tested with Nginx 0.6.1, 0.6.12, 0.6.13 and 0.6.30. The legacy 0.5.x versions are not supported, please upgrade your nginx installation to the current stable (0.6.30 and more).

1) download the Nginx sources from http://nginx.net/ and unpack it.

2) build Nginx: change to the directory which contains the Nginx sources, and run the configuration script making sure to add the path to the nginx_uploadprogress_module sources using the --add-module option: $ ./configure --add-module=/path/to/nginx_uploadprogress_module/

Now you can build and install the software: $ make

and as root: $ make install

For usage, configuration and examples, please see the wiki page or the README file.

Anyway enjoy :-)
