how does one implement a streaming upload handler in VertX?
if i'm uploading a 10GB file, i don't want it to sit inside an in-memory buffer

I've started messing around with custom handlers, but not sure how to access the stream

class LulaUploadHandler : Handler<RoutingContext> {
			override fun handle(ctx: RoutingContext) {
				try {
					val request = ctx.request()
					request.streamPriorityHandler {
						<http://log.info|log.info>("blah")
					}

					<http://log.info|log.info>(request.bytesRead().toString())



				} catch (e: Exception) {
					log.error(e.message ?: "", e)
				}
				ctx.response().end("completed")
			}
		}
		<http://router.post|router.post>("/leupload").handler(LulaUploadHandler())

this seems to work

class LulaUploadHandler : Handler<RoutingContext> {
			override fun handle(ctx: RoutingContext) {
				try {
					val request = ctx.request()
					request.pipeTo(LulaWriterStream())

then inside the custom WriterStream implementation i get access to the bytes

yeah - use a pipe and pipe it to a file or something
