nginx rewrite redirect for a folder

Question

all...

I am trying to do something in nginx to redirect all calls for files in

/images/ 

to become in:

/assets/images/ 

can someone help me with the rewrite rule? giving a 301 moved permanently status?

Answer 1

Here's the preferred way to do this with newer versions of Nginx:

location ~ ^/images/(.*) {     return 301 /assets/images/$1; } 

See https://www.nginx.com/blog/creating-nginx-rewrite-rules/ for more info.

Answer 2

Add below configuration into your nginx.conf

rewrite ^/(images.*) /assets/$1 permanent;
