How to setup try_files in nginx?

Question

Nginx

How to make in nginx so that the file domain.com/12345.html opens on request /12345 , and /12345.html , and /12345/, and /12345.html/ ? Something from this either works out, or not, but all together so that it doesn’t work out at all.

Answer 1

Probably something like this :)

location ~ ^/[0-9]+
{
rewrite ^/([0-9]+)[^0-9]*$ /$1.html;
}

Answer 2

Something like that:

location ~ ^(/\d+)(\.html)?\/?$ {
    try_files $1.html =404
}

The whole point is in the regexp: Beginning of the string - a few digits - 0 or 1 occurrences of ".html" - 0 or 1 occurrences of "/" - end of the string. .
