My issue: I need some help with url rewrite in nginx. Currently I am using nginx for reverse proxy. I have created below location directives in nginx.conf file for url rewrite for different tools and it works. However in order to add any new tool I need to know the location for all static files required by the tool to load the ui correctly. Is there a way nginx can handle this automatically without me pointing the rewrite for each folder. I cannot change the location of static file since I dont own source code for any of these tools
Example location /stable- , location ~ ^/(static|api|kernel|lsp|kernelspecs)/ and location ~ ^/stata/(css|js|icons)/ . How can I do rewrite so that previous 3 locations directives are not required.
How I encountered the problem: I have created the conf file myself. When I was adding any tool my browser was give 404 for most of the static files
Solutions I’ve tried: I have read several post online but didn’t find a way to do it other than what I have done
My config:
server {
listen 80;
server_name _;
error_log /opt/openresty/nginx/logs/error.log info;
error_log /opt/openresty/nginx/logs/error.log error;
# root /opt/openresty/nginx
location / {
return 404;
}
