nginx Reverse Proxy Configuration Prefix Removal Case Tutorial

When using nginx as a reverse proxy, you can simply forward the request to the next service intact. Setting proxy_pass requests only replaces domain names, and if you want to access different services based on different url suffixes, you need to do the following:

Method 1: Add "/"

server {
    listen              8000;
    server_name         abc.com;
    access_log  "pipe:rollback /data/log/nginx/access.log interval=1d baknum=7 maxsize=1G"  main;

    location ^~/user/ {
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP        $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For  $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

        proxy_pass http://user/;
    }

    location ^~/order/ {
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP        $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For  $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

        proxy_pass http://order/;
    }
}

^ ~ /user/indicates a request with a matching prefix of user, and if there is/at the end of proxy_pass, the path following /user/* is spliced directly to the following, that is, user is removed.

Method 2: rewrite

upstream user {
  server localhost:8089 weight=5;
}
upstream order {
  server localhost:8090 weight=5;
}

server {
    listen              80;
    server_name  abc.com;
    access_log  "pipe:rollback /data/log/nginx/access.log interval=1d baknum=7 maxsize=1G"  main;

    location ^~/user/ {
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP        $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For  $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

        rewrite ^/user/(.*)$ /$1 break;
        proxy_pass http://user;
    }

    location ^~/order/ {
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP        $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For  $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

        rewrite ^/order/(.*)$ /$1 break;
        proxy_pass http://order;
    }
}

proxy_pass does not end with/, rewrite overrides url.
