Can Nginx only cache reponse body while excluding some response headers?

Hi there,

I'm afraid I don't understand what exactly you are asking.

Could you give more details, or an example?

Such as:

request from client to nginx; not in cache, so nginx asks upstream which
returns headers+body. What do you want nginx to store in the cache,
and what should nginx send to the client?

same request from client to nginx; it is in the cache. What should nginx
send to the client?

The answer to that might make your question clearer.

Thanks,
