Nginx从URL重写子文件夹和文件扩展名

Question

This is my scenario

https://x.com/remove/something/subfolder/sub.html

should be rewritten to

https://x.com/something/subfolder/sub

ie I want to remove a URL part ( remove in this case) and the file extension .html

so far I've come with this

location /remove {
 rewrite ^/remove(/.*)$ $1 last;
}

but it's not working

UPDATE

got remove part solved by rewrite ^/remove/(.*)$ https://x.com/$1 last;

now just need the file extension removal only

Answer 1

Your regular expression is capturing everything after the /remove part. You need to take the suffix out of the capture.

rewrite ^/remove(/.*)\.html$ $1 permanent;

See this document for details. Also, note use of the appropriate flag.
