Question

I’m trying to map clean URLs to controllers of the same name. I’d like to just use a variable so that my config file doesn’t become cluttered. I tried this:

location ^~ /$1 {
  rewrite ^ /controllers/$1.php last;
}

But it doesn’t seem to be working. Any ideas?

Answer 1

It should be

location / {
  rewrite ^(.*)$ /controllers/$1.php last;
}

As the documentation shows
