Splits a request into subrequests, each providing a specific range of response.
The variable "$slice_range" must be used to set subrequest range and proper
cache key. The directive "slice" sets slice size.
The following example splits requests into 1-megabyte cacheable subrequests.
server {
listen 8000;
location / {
slice 1m;
proxy_cache cache;
proxy_cache_key $uri$is_args$args$slice_range;
proxy_set_header Range $slice_range;
proxy_cache_valid 200 206 1h;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:9000;
}
}
