I want to protext a live HLS stream. I want to use the auth_request module. I want to check if a request is valid by passing a key. So something like: http://domain.com/hls/stream.m3u8?key=xxxxxxx

I have the following setup in nginx.conf:

location /hls {
  alias /tmp/hls;
  auth_request /hls/auth;
}

location /hls/auth {
  proxy_pass http://localhost.com:8080/on_play.php;
  proxy_pass_request_body off;
  proxy_set_header Content-Length "";
  proxy_set_header X-Original-URI $request_uri;
}

Now I need to get the key=xxxxx available in http://localhost.com:8080/on_play.php.

I tried a lot but nothing seems to work. I also tried something like:

location /hls {
  alias /tmp/hls;
  auth_request http://localhost.com:8080/on_play.php?key=$arg_key;
}

But this also doesn't work. There seems not to be a possibility as of to get the key argument in the on_play.php

The $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] also doesn't contain the args.

Also tried following config:

I also tried something like this, but this also doesn't work:

location ~ ^/hls/(long|short)/([0-9a-zA-Z]+)\.m3u8 {
  alias /tmp/hls/$1/$2.m3u8;
  auth_request /hls/auth-play/$1/$2;
}

location ~ ^/hls/auth-play/(long|short)/([0-9a-zA-Z]+) {
  proxy_pass http://loclahost.com:8080/on_play.php?app=$1&room=$2;
  proxy_pass_request_body off;
  proxy_set_header Content-Length "";
  proxy_set_header X-Original-URI $request_uri;
}

But this also doesn't work.

The output of nginx -V is:

I can read the $_SERVER["HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_URI"] in php, but I like to have the vars just as $_GET. This doesn't seem to work.

As you can see from the logs below, only the $is_args variable is added in the subrequest. The debug.log is below:

  • proxy_pass localhost.com:8080/on_play.php$is_args$args; Commented Jun 26, 2014 at 16:52
  • Already tried that one, but that also doesn't work. The args don't get passed to location /hls/auth Commented Jun 26, 2014 at 19:57
  • can you please provide the logs with debug level? And the output of nginx -V as well. Commented Jun 26, 2014 at 20:54
  • Added debug.log and nginx -V. The debug.log is for: proxy_pass localhost.com:8080/on_play.php$is_args$args; Commented Jun 27, 2014 at 6:56
  • This is driving me nuts. Any luck on this? Commented Aug 21, 2014 at 15:24

Got something similar to work like this:

location ~ ^/something/([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/(.*)$ {
    set $auth_request_uri "http://127.0.0.1/api/something/$1/access/$2";
    auth_request /auth;

    alias $SOMEPATH/public/files/$2/$3;
}

location /auth {
    internal;
    proxy_pass $auth_request_uri;
    proxy_pass_request_body off;
    proxy_set_header Content-Length "";
    proxy_set_header X-Original-URI $request_uri;
}

This works for me, but it worries me because I'm not really sure how nginx variables work. It looks like $auth_request_uri is effectively being used as a global variable. In this case, could one client request set the variable, then authorise a separate client request ? (A race condition)
@ddouglascarr I would have thought the vars is contained in each request.
