FWIW, I vaguely recall how the last thread on X-sendfile and the files API
got conflated (derailed?) and as far as I understood it then and as far as I
understand it now, they're related only because some backends (which we
currently don't directly support) are difficult to work with without suc

I didn't know there was an X-Sendfile module for Nginx -- Search results
for "nginx xsendfile" point me to X-Accel-Redirect.

One possible solution would be to split the problem up a bit. Django
could provide an HttpFileResponse object. This would

I think you're diverging: My point is simply to illustrate how to use

Hi,
I look at your example code. You need to name the webserver in the
code. That's not very nice. I guess it should be possible to
guess the webserver (apache vs nginx) by looking at request.META.
Documentation would be nice

Hi all,
Just to let you know that there's an X-Sendfile implementation for
WSGI apps (inc. Django), which also works with Nginx:
https://launchpad.net/wsgi-xsendfile
You can use it in Django views via twod.wsgi. For example:
"""
from twod.wsgi import call_wsgi_app
from xsendfile import NginxSend

I'd also note that wsgi itself apparently has an api abstraction
wsgi.file_w
I wish to note that Nginx implements this feature differently than
LigHTTPd and Apache2
http://wiki.nginx.org/XSendfile ,
Should django implementation consider that ?
My proposal to implement would be:
1. HttpFileResponse which takes file location (relative to MEDIA_URL ?)
2. HttpFileResponse c

It's worth pointing out that manage.py runserver isn't likely to ever
support serving those files even if the header arrives in core. It's
explicitly not appropriate for any kind of production use, fallback or
otherwise. If you really need support for your development work (and

Hi,
I want to use X-Sendfile to serve some medium-sized files. There
doesn't seem to be built-in support for this, although the soc2009/
http-wsgi-improvements branch looks like somebody attempted to
implement HttpResponseSendFile (although it seems to use the slow
path).
