I need to get the parameter from an URL, for example, abc=MY_STRING:
https://my-address/test?abc=MY_STRING
And at the reverse proxy (my-address), is configured like this:
location /test?(.*) {
proxy_pass http://local-server:1234/test?$args
}
but it is not working.
I tried another configuration:
location /test?(.*) {
proxy_pass http://local-server:1234/test?$1
}
but not worked too.
You cannot match the query string part of the URI with a location or rewrite statement, as it is not part of the normalized URI.
But you don't need to. The URI (complete with query string) will be passed upstream
unless you redirect it using a rewrite or try_files statement.
For example:
location /test {
proxy_pass http://localhost:1234;
}
The URI /test?abc=MY_STRING will match the location and be passed to localhost:1234 exactly the same. See this document for more.

I need to get the host address from the request and redirect to another host with the rewritten address, but in all possible ways I failed
Here's an example (one of the attempts):
location / {
proxy_pass http://...;
...
}
location /service/(.*)$/ {
rewrite /service/$1/(.*)$ /$2 break;
proxy_pass http://$1.localhost:8080/;
...
}
Works only if hardcoded:
location /service/hostaname/ {
rewrite /service/hostaname/(.*)$ /$1 break;
proxy_pass http://hostaname.localhost:8080/;
...
}
But this is not a suitable solution for me
Help meeeeeee, thanks!
Your location syntax is invalid, as it is missing the regular expression operator. The rewrite statement contains an invalid regular expression.
You do not need the rewrite statement as you can extract the parts of the URI from the location statement.
For example:
location ~ ^/service/([^/]+)/(.*)$ {
proxy_pass http://$1.localhost:8080/$2;
}
You may need to define a resolver statement as the proxy_pass contains variables. See this document for details.
Can I set a variable with an URL returned by a proxy? ... I want to avoid to run Java, PHP, Python etc. Need somethong simple and faster.
Note, to answer comments: "... an URL returned by a proxy" = a microservice that is a black-box returning the URL. Any URL, can be aleatory or function of inputs (passed to the proxy).
If it is possible, how to?
This is fine on my NGINX server, it is returning a string with the necessary URL.
location /_test {
rewrite ^/_test/(.*) /$1 break;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3000;
}
(here $1 is the input and 127.0.0.1:3000 the black-box microservice)
... How to redirect as return 301 $theNewUrl? Imagining something (illustrative and wrong of course) as
location /_test {
rewrite ^/_test/(.*) /$1 break;
set theNewUrl = proxy_pass(http://127.0.0.1:3000/$1);
return 301 $theNewUrl;
}
To redirect base on path on Ningx, try this:
example.com is your base domain.
server {
server_name myDomain;
location /_test/hello/ {
proxy_pass http://google.com/;
}
location /_test/bye/ {
proxy_pass http://stackoverflow.com/;
}
}
Example:
HTTP request to http://myDomain/_test/hello/$1 will be translated to: http://google.com/$1 you can use it with ports or whatever you want.
I am trying to use variable to set the hostname in a proxy_pass, but once I try that, the path after the location is ignored.
If I try and get localhost:8001/dirA/x/y/z.html. The following returns the file from http://server1:8888/dirB/dirC/x/y/z.html. This is what I expect to happen.
location ^~ /dirA/ {
proxy_pass http://server1:8888/dirB/dirC/;
But if I try the following config which is just using a variable for hostname... and try and get localhost:8001/dirA/x/y/z.html
location ^~ /dirA/ {
set $endpoint server1;
proxy_pass http://$endpoint:8888/dirB/dirC/;
I get http://server1:8888/dirB/dirC/index.html returned instead.
That's just how proxy_pass works. If you use a variable in the value, you need to provide the entire URI. See this document for details;
You could use a regular expression location. For example:
location ~ ^/dirA/(.*)$ {
set $endpoint server1;
proxy_pass http://$endpoint:8888/dirB/dirC/$1;
}
Note that the order of regular expression locations is significant. See this document for details.
Alternatively, a rewrite...break should also work.
location ^~ /dirA/ {
set $endpoint server1;
rewrite ^/dirA/(.*)$ /dirB/dirC/$1 break;
proxy_pass http://$endpoint:8888;
}
I have been struggling with setting up Nginx for our use case.
When I set up Nginx with the following config:
location /dep-core {
proxy_pass http://node-server:7070/;
}
and call the server with following endpoint:
<END-POINT>/dep-core/api/login
the call is redirected to
<ADDRESS-AFTER-RESOLUTION>//api/login
with two leading //s.
and when I remove the trailing / in proxy_pass after 7070:
location /dep-core {
proxy_pass http://node-server:7070;
}
the call is redirected to
<ADDRESS-AFTER-RESOLUTION>/dep-core/api/login
with leading /dep-core appended.
I want my call to redirect my call to:
<ADDRESS-AFTER-RESOLUTION>/api/login
What would be the standard way to achieve this??
For correct translation from /dep-core/foo to /foo, the location directive requires a trailing /.
For example:
location /dep-core/ {
proxy_pass http://node-server:7070/;
}
See this document for details.
To translate /dep-core to /, you can use a rewrite...break with a clever regular expression in the second block of your question. But a simple solution is to add an exact match location for that single edge case.
For example:
location = /dep-core {
rewrite ^ $uri/ last;
}
location /dep-core/ {
proxy_pass http://node-server:7070/;
}
I need to set proxy_pass for the below url pattern.
location ~ ^/hosts/bu/(.*)/app/(.*)$ {
proxy_pass http://appserver.cnma.com:3000/hosts/bu/$1/app/$2;
}
When I try with the URL it does not pass the second parameter correctly. Please let me know where I am going wrong.
Orig docs say:
If proxy_pass is specified without a URI, the request URI is passed to the server in the same form as sent by a client when the original request is processed, or the full normalized request URI is passed when processing the changed URI:
location /some/path/ {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1;
}
So there is enough:
proxy_pass http://appserver.cnma.com:3000$request_uri;
you can use named capture in nginx while using regular expressions
location ~ ^/hosts/bu/(.*)/app/(.*)$ {
proxy_pass http://appserver.cnma.com:3000/hosts/bu/$1/app/$2;
}
You can modify block to below like this
location ~ ^/hosts/bu/(?<loc1>.+)/app/(?<loc2>.+)$ {
proxy_pass http://appserver.cnma.com:3000/hosts/bu/$1/app/$loc2;
}
