How to log all headers in nginx?


How do I log all the headers the client (browser) has sent in Nginx? I also want to log the response headers. Note that I am using nginx as reverse proxy.

After going through documentation, I understand that I can log a specific header, but I want to log all of the headers.


Solution

  • After much research, I can conclude that it is not possible out of the box.

    Update- you can use openresty which comes with Lua. Using Lua one can do pretty cool things, including logging all of the headers to say, Redis or some other server
