最近做项目开发的时候遇到这么一个问题,需要在nginx里面添加一个location 到指定路径的跳转:
location /server1/path1/path2
结果这个配置一直未生效,后来查资料才知道 location 配置有优先级的,而我一直以为location 优先级关系就是简单的物理位置的前后,其实nginx location 的优先级关系如下:
(location =) > (location 完整路径) > (location ^~ 路径) > (location ,* 正则顺序) > (location 部分起始路径) > (/)
可参考官方文档:https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html?&_ga=2.195052132.998240356.1575944644-1697618498.1575944644#location
原文:
Syntax: location [ = | ~ | ~* | ^~ ] uri { ... }
location @name { ... }
Default: —
Context: server, location
Sets configuration depending on a request URI.
The matching is performed against a normalized URI, after decoding the text encoded in the “%XX” form, resolving references to relative path components “.” and “…”, and possible compression of two or more adjacent slashes into a single slash.
A location can either be defined by a prefix string, or by a regular expression. Regular expressions are specified with the preceding"~*" modifier (for case-insensitive matching), or the "~"modifier (for case-sensitive matching). To find location matching a given request, nginx first checks locations defined using the prefix strings (prefix locations). Among them, the location with the longest matching prefix is selected and remembered. Then regular expressions are checked, in the order of their appearance in the configuration file. The search of regular expressions terminates on the first match, and the corresponding configuration is used. If no match with a regular expression is found then the configuration of the prefix location remembered earlier is used.
location blocks can be nested, with some exceptions mentioned below.
For case-insensitive operating systems such as macOS and Cygwin, matching with prefix strings ignores a case (0.7.7). However, comparison is limited to one-byte locales.
Regular expressions can contain captures (0.7.40) that can later be used in other directives.
If the longest matching prefix location has the “^~” modifier then regular expressions are not checked.
Also, using the “=” modifier it is possible to define an exact match of URI and location. If an exact match is found, the search terminates. For example, if a “/” request happens frequently, defining “location = /” will speed up the processing of these requests, as search terminates right after the first comparison. Such a location cannot obviously contain nested locations.
In versions from 0.7.1 to 0.8.41, if a request matched the prefix location without the “=” and “^~” modifiers, the search also terminated and regular expressions were not checked.
Let’s illustrate the above by an example:
location = / {
[ configuration A ]
}
location / {
[ configuration B ]
}
location /documents/ {
[ configuration C ]
}
location ^~ /images/ {
[ configuration D ]
}
location ~* \.(gif|jpg|jpeg)$ {
[ configuration E ]
}
The “/” request will match configuration A, the “/index.html” request will match configuration B, the “/documents/document.html” request will match configuration C, the “/images/1.gif” request will match configuration D, and the “/documents/1.jpg” request will match configuration E.
The “@” prefix defines a named location. Such a location is not used for a regular request processing, but instead used for request redirection. They cannot be nested, and cannot contain nested locations.
If a location is defined by a prefix string that ends with the slash character, and requests are processed by one of proxy_pass, fastcgi_pass, uwsgi_pass, scgi_pass, memcached_pass, or grpc_pass, then the special processing is performed. In response to a request with URI equal to this string, but without the trailing slash, a permanent redirect with the code 301 will be returned to the requested URI with the slash appended. If this is not desired, an exact match of the URI and location could be defined like this:
location /user/ {
proxy_pass http://user.example.com;
}
location = /user {
proxy_pass http://login.example.com;
}
