Re: Simple URI redirection / alias in Nginx…

[pk899]

I have a similar issue. 

Do we need separate location directives for each and every possible
path, or can we do some "rewrite" inside location for the main / root
folder? For example: 

location = / {

  # rewrite rules come here..
  rewrite "^/adm$" "/wordpress/wp-login.php";
  ....
  fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
  fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME
/var/www/example.com/wordpress/wp-login.php
  include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;

}



To me this is cleaner, but want to make sure that this is not the less
desirable way? 

Thanks.
