nginx rewrite like apache?

Question

Nginx

Previously, the site was running on Apache, and there were paths everywhere:
example.org/index (the request went to example.org/index.php)
example.org/admin (the request went to example.org/admin.php)
example.org/profile (the request went to example.org/profile.php)
Apache automatically processed the path data, and quietly opened.
After transferring to Nginx, the paths of such a plan are not acceptable for him, and climbing to add *.php everywhere is dreary and unrealistic.
How can I make Nginx behave the way it did out of the box with Apache rewrite enabled?

Answer 3

I'm not sure, but something like this might help:

location / {
        try_files $uri $uri.php /index.php$is_args$args;
}
