I understand. However, I don't want to make a subrequest with the body
of the main request. I want to be able to make a subrequest with a
totally new request body.
For example:
The client sends to my server:
POST /server_url
(main) request body: body_from_client_to_server
My server would make a subrequest to a backend:
POST /backend_url
subrequest body: body_from_server_to_backend
Or even this scenario:
Client to my server:
GET /server_url
My server to a backend:
POST /backend_url
subrequest body: blabla
In this case, you want to create a simple input filter, which puts
your intended request body into a brigade, and then passes the brigade
(containing your body) to whatever is making the request.
Look in trunk for the module that implements the KEPT_BODY filter, it
does the same thing and will give you an example of how it is done.
