Nginx variable equivalent of: $scheme://$host:$port

  • 772

When redirecting, I want to redirect to the same scheme+host+port as the request, but with a different path. Is there an Nginx variable which is the equivalent of $scheme://$host:$port?

For example, when a request for https://www.some-site.net/login.htm comes in, it should be redirected to https://www.some-site.net/login (e.g. no ".htm").

Is there a variable that consolidates $scheme://$host:$port?

    The variables $scheme://$host:$server_port are all supported by Nginx and are documented here.

    However, you don't necessarily need to use them, as Nginx automatically provides the missing components.

    For example, the statement:

    return 301 /login;

    will use the same scheme, host and port as the original request by default, unless this behaviour is explicitly overridden by directives such as absolute_redirect, port_in_redirect, or server_name_in_redirect.
