File upload concerns about jooby HOT 5 CLOSED

• The files are stored in Jooby.getTmpdir
• Files are saved to disk when the ServerOptions.bufferSize (16kb) is exceed
• FileUpload.path() allow you to move file somewhere else. If the file is all in memory, it will be saved to disk.
• There is no partial upload support. Large files are read by chunk, but yea no user code run while reading the file.

yea the maxRequestSize is the "whole" request (no matter if you have a file or not in it). The other option is how much you keep in memory when a file is part of the request. But again this can't exceed the maxRequestSize value.

Ok, thanks. Is there any possibility to add file upload size limit as a feature? I do not know the details so it might not be so but uploading a very large file could cause harm, for example the disk could run out of space (I know the file is temporary but it could cause issues). As a ServerOptions field would be good

There is one option: ServerOptions.maxRequestSize which defaults to 10mb. That option control the entire request size and results in REQUEST_ENTITY_TOO_LARGE error when exceed

from jooby.

So this means that by default you cannot upload files larger than 10mb. I think this should be mentioned on the site. It is apparent then that adding one specific for files could be useful (for example allow large request but only small file to handle small disk) but confusing then because it would be affected by maxRequestSize as well. Thank you the maxRequestSize is good to know about.
