NGINX 将 URL 保留在 /location/some-path 并提供 /location/?

Question

Is this possible?

User enters https://mywebsite.com/location/any-path

Nginx runs https://mywebsite.com/location/

URL displays https://mywebsite.com/location/any-path

Is there a particular name for this type of action also?

Answer 1

You can use nginx redirection here -

location = /location/any-path {
   return 301 /location;
  }

Answer 2

You want to proxy_pass the request to another url and then proxy_redirect to alter the url displayed to the client.

Something like this:

location ~ /location/(.+) {
    resolver 8.8.8.8;
    proxy_pass https://mywebsite.com/location/index.php;
    proxy_redirect /location/ /location/$1/;
}
