使用 nginx 将 URL 重写为 MP4 视频

Question

I want to rewrite example.com/videos/name/ to the MP4 file videos/name.mp4 and serve it with content type video/mp4 as if the user would have requested the video directly with example.com/videos/name.mp4 .

How can I do that with nginx ?

Answer 1

I got it:

location = /videos/ {
    types { } default_type "video/mp4";

    rewrite ^/name/$ /videos/name.mp4 last;
}
