How to divide files in nginx location?

  • 772

I serve statistic files by

location /files/ {
alias /folder1/;
}

Now I want to distribute the files in two disks. The uri has a format of /files/[0-9]/subfolders/file.ext. How can I configure nginx to read files from /files/[0-4]/... from Disk1, and files/[5-9]/... from Disk2. Note that autoindex is not enabled.

    Perhaps you can achieve this through regex matching. Add the following regexes:

    location ~ "^/files/([0-4]/.*)$" {
    alias /disk1/files/$1;
}
location ~ "^/files/([5-9]/.*)$" {
    alias /disk2/files/$1;
}

    Hope this works!
