nginx headers

Question

Nginx

Hello, there is an nginx server with the nginx-push-stream-module module on it, which allows you to send a local post-request to some url, and the client subscribes to this information via get.

The problem is that I need to send an array of bytes, and through a get-request we get information like: The question is how to disable the sending of these headers? Is it possible to explicitly indicate that I am sending a stupid set of bytes and I need to receive them without any additional information? In the nginx config I tried to write:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx
Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2012 07:37:40 GMT
Content-Type: binary/octet-stream
Connection: close
Transfer-Encoding: chunked

BIARY DATA HERE


http {
gzip on;
server_tokens off;
default_type binary/octet-stream;
...
server {
...
chunked_transfer_encoding off;
push_stream_content_type "binary/octet-stream";
}
}

Look towards WebSockets or github.com/yaoweibin/nginx_tcp_proxy_module

Answer 2

This is an HTTP protocol, so you will always get at least an HTTP/1.1 200 OK\n\n, other headers can be omitted. As I understand it, your clients are not browsers? Try in your client to simply filter out the headers. Response body comes after \n\n
