Nginx pass subdirectory as base url to Kohana

  • 772

Having set up multiple Kohana applications on Nginx, I need to adjust the "base url" parameter for each application. Before when I was using Apache with .htaccess this was easy (RewriteBase) but in Nginx I have found the following solution:

location /sites/site1/ {
    try_files $uri /sites/site1/index.php?$args;
}

location /sites/site2/ {
    try_files $uri /sites/site2/index.php?$args;
}

...etc...

Now, since I would like to add many more applications, I'd rather have a single location block passing the Kohana application to the correct path. I've tried something like this (this won't work for me):

location /sites/([a-z0-9\-]+)/ {
    try_files $uri /sites/$1/index.php?$args;
}

As you may see, I'm not a regex expert, but I want to pass any existing subdirectory with names containing alphanumerical characters and dash to the corresponding base path. Thanks.

configuration nginx kohana

  1. You need a prefix for location to do regex matching. Try this:

    location ~* ^/sites/([a-z0-9\-]+)/ {
    try_files $uri /sites/$1/index.php?$args;
}
