Proxying based on protocol (e.g. "ws"/"wss")?

[Daniel Griscom]

I'm an nginx newbie, and need use use it as a front end for a website 
that also handles websocket connections. I have the configuration set 
up so that requests to a specific URI match a location section, which 
then proxies the request to the websocket back end server, and it all 
works. (Very cool.)

However, I was wondering if, rather than detecting requests to a 
specific location, I could proxy all "ws://" or "wss:// requests, 
independent of the URI being requested.

Is there a way to proxy all requests with a given protocol?


Thanks,
Dan
