Some Common Usages
Here are some common redirects that you may need to implement with Nginx
Redirect From www.domain1.com to www.domain2.com
server {
server_name www.domain1.com;
rewrite ^/$ http://www.domain2.com redirect; // redirect = temporary
rewrite ^/$ http://www.domain2.com permanent; // redirect = permanent
}Redirect url on old domain to new domain
server {
server_name www.olddomain.com;
rewrite ^/oldlocation$ http://www.newdomain.com/newlocation redirect; // redirect = temp
rewrite ^/another-location$ http://www.newdomain.com/another-location permanent; // redirect = perm
}Switch HTTP to HTTPS
server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
server_name example.com www.example.com;
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
// other possible return types are 301, 302, 303, 307
