Does nginx supports chunk encoded client body?
Thanks Manlio P.

No. It will be supported only when I will implement client body filter
chain (I do not want to do partial solution right now).
The client body filter chain allows to implement
*) upload progress bar filter
*) dechunk body filter
*) POST filter to parse POST body and save POSTed files
*) default filter to save body to file or memory

Great, saving POSTed files is one of the feature I need, since it cannot
be done efficiently by a WSGI application!
It would be nice if nginx can “convert” multipart/form-data client body
data to application/x-www-form-urlencoded, saving POSTed file.
As an example (taken from the HTML 4.01 spec:
What is your name?
What files are you sending?
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=AaB03x
--AaB03x
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="submit-name"
Larry
--AaB03x
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="files"; filename="file1.txt"
Content-Type: text/plain
... contents of file1.txt ...
--AaB03x--
will be converted to:
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
submit-name=Larry&files=file1.txt
and the content of file1 will be saved in /temp_path/{prefix}/file1.txt
Additionally, the prefix can be build using values supplied in the form
submission.
