Description

This module works with nginx-upload-module to rename files uploaded to the directory specified by upload_store

for simple renaming of file upload services, without starting other backend services to make file changes

The article on simple file uploads with the nginx-upload-module can be found here(Chinese articles)

Directives

upload_files_rename

• Syntax：upload_files_rename on
• Default：—
• Context：location

Rename the uploaded file, set according to the file name before uploading. Moving files to other specified directories is not supported at the moment

Example configuration

Copy ngx_http_upload_rename/uploadSuccess/ to the html directory of Nginx, which will return the page in the directory after a successful upload

    server {
        listen 80;

        client_max_body_size 100m;
        
        # Upload form should be submitted to this location
        location /upload {
            # Pass altered request body to this location
            upload_pass /uploadSuccess;

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

            # Allow uploaded files to be read only by user
            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";

            upload_pass_form_field "^submit$|^description$";

            upload_cleanup 400 404 499 500-505;
        }

        # Pass altered request body to a backend
        location /uploadSuccess {
            upload_files_rename on;
        }
    }

Tips

This module is only suitable for simple file upload service

For file A and B with the same file name but different contents, after uploading file A first and file B again, file A will be deleted and file B will be kept, i.e. there is no setting for collision processing of files with the same name, please be aware of this.

The location/uploadSuccess specified by upload_pass may not be able to start other module functions, but only this module (not tested yet) due to the choice of mounting method during module development
