I know that it’s possible to upload files to my cloud-files account in Node.js, using the following module: node-cloudfiles.
But is it also possible to upload a filestream directly?
In my case I am dowloading an image from a certain location in Node.js and want to upload this directly to my cloud-files account without saving the image temporary on my server.

Of course it is possible – you can just read the documentation on Rackspace Cloud Files API ( http://docs.rackspacecloud.com/files/api/cf-devguide-latest.pdf ) and implement the necessary parts yourself.
However, I’d suggest to wait until https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-cloudfiles/pull/11 gets integrated into the trunk – then node-cloudfiles library will support uploading files using streams so you won’t have to create files before uploading.
