Wildcard www to non www redirection nginx

  • 772

I'd like to redirect all traffic from

www.*.*.<gTLD> to *.*.<gTLD>

If possible, I'd like to do that outside the block that serves the application. This block does not use a server_name because it listens to 5,000+ hostnames on the same app.

Do you have an idea on how to achieve that please ? All the example I find is only for named hosts....

Thank you

nginx

    You can define a server block with a regular expression server_name. For example:

    server {
    server_name ~^(www\.)(?<domain>.+)$;
    return 301 $scheme://$domain;
}

    See this document for more.

  2. With the help of @Richard Smith I came with a result of : 

    server {
    server_name ~^(www\.)(?<domain>.+\..+\..+)$;
    return 301 $scheme://$domain;
}

    It works well :-)
