Nginx how to redirect http to https? - nginx

Question

I'm kind of new in aws services and nginx configuration.
I'm using nginx and my EB instance is a single instance with load balancer at classic mode in front of it.
I have this config file in system:
server {
listen 80;
server_name _;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 8080;
if ($time_iso8601 ~ "^(\d{4})-(\d{2})-(\d{2})T(\d{2})") {
set $year $1;
set $month $2;
set $day $3;
set $hour $4;
}
access_log /var/log/nginx/healthd/application.log.$year-$month-$day-$hour healthd;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;
location / {
proxy_pass http://nodejs;
proxy_set_header Connection "";
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
the machine is behind load-balancer of aws elastic beanstack and EC2 that already configer to make a redirect from 80 to 443 according to aws docs
https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/elb-redirect-http-to-https-using-alb/
the problem here is that the redirect from http to https is not working, and i am unable to access my website when i come from http to https.
weird scenario when i visited my website http://something.com and then make refresh its make the redirect to https://something.com as i want to but not immediately.
any suggestion how to solve this problem?
*both http and https access work fine but i want that all my clients that access from http redirect them to https.

I did this solution and its work
node.js side
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
if (
(!req.secure) && (req.get('X-Forwarded-Proto') !== 'https') &&
!req.get('Host').includes('localhost')
) {
res.redirect('https://' + req.get('Host') + req.url);
}
else next();
});
