Questions for X-Accel-Redirect

[Toshikuni Fukaya]

Hi,

I have some questions for X-Accel-Redirect.

Background: I use X-Accel-Redirect to send blob data from a second
server (:8001 in below). I want to send headers from not only the second
but also the first (:8000).
Current nginx implementation, however, sends only headers from the
second except some headers from the first, such as Content-Type.

Question 1:
Can I change this behavior to send headers from the first server
together with ones from the second to a client?

Question 2:
If Q1 is acceptable, I hope to hide some headers by proxy_hide_header
directive. Is this design ok for you?

###  here is my example conf. ###
server {
        listen 80 default_server;
        location / {
                proxy_pass http://localhost:8000/;
        }
        location /reproxy/ {
                proxy_pass http://localhost:8001/;
        }
}

server {
        listen 8000;
        location / {
                add_header x-accel-redirect /reproxy/;
                add_header foo 1;
                return 200;
        }
}

server {
        listen 8001;
        location / {
                add_header bar 1;
                return 200;
        }
}

Thanks,
