[Seaside] Using nginx file upload module

[Nick Ager]

Hi Johan,

Sorry for the delay. I have the Nginx file upload module working. In case
it's still useful here's the relevant portions of my nginx configuration:

    upstream seaside {
       server 127.0.0.1:9001;
       server 127.0.0.1:9002;
       server 127.0.0.1:9003;
       fair;
    }

    server {
       listen 80 default;
       server_name www.getitmade.com;
       # server_name _;
       root /var/www;

       location / {
            try_files $uri @seaside;
        }

       # ensure that files are searched for locally and not passed to the
       # Gems if the file isn't found on the disk
       location ~* \.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|css|html|htm|js|zip)$ {

       }

       location ~ fileupload {
           # Pass altered request body to this location
           upload_pass   @seaside;

           # if there's no upload file in this request, nginx generates a
405 - we use this
           # to pass the request onto the 'normal' seaside processing
           # The way this is achieved in the other location directives is
through a "try_files" method
           # however using "try_files" results in the other directives never
being processed
           error_page 405 415 = @seaside;

           # Store files to this directory
           # The directory is hashed, subdirectories 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
should exist
           upload_store /var/nginx/temp 1;

           # Set the file attributes for uploaded files
           upload_store_access user:rw group:rw all:rw;

           # Set specified fields in request body
           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";

           # Inform backend about hash and size of a file
           # upload_aggregate_form_field "$upload_field_name.md5"
"$upload_file_md5";
           upload_aggregate_form_field "$upload_field_name.size"
"$upload_file_size";

           # seaside automatically assigns sequential integers to fields
with callbacks
           # we want to pass those fields to the backend
           upload_pass_form_field "^\d+$";

           # we don't want files hanging around if the server failed to
process them.
           upload_cleanup 500-505;

           # file upload progress tracking - 30s is the timeout (progress
tracking is
           # available 30s after the upload has finished)
           # this must be the last directive in the location block.
           track_uploads proxied 30s;
       }

       # used to report upload progress - defined by the Nginx Upload
Progress Module
       # see http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpUploadProgressModule
       location  /progress {
          report_uploads proxied;
       }

       location @seaside {
          include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
          fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
          fastcgi_pass seaside;
       }

      location /nginx_status {
         # copied from
http://blog.kovyrin.net/2006/04/29/monitoring-nginx-with-rrdtool/
         stub_status on;
         access_log   off;
         allow 127.0.0.1;
         deny all;
      }

       error_page 404 /errors/404.html;
       error_page 403 /errors/403.html;
       error_page 500 502 503 504 /errors/50x.html;
    }
