regex - Nginx - Rewrite using last url segment -

my original url following:

http://example.com/lab/file.php?id=4&idl=42

i want beautify it, making accessible through url following:

http://example.com/l/not/important/url/part/?id=4&idl=42

i tried following code, doesn't work.

rewrite /l/.*/([^/]+)/?$ /lab/file.php$1 last;

how solve?

anything after ? query string , cannot rewritten using rewrite directive. however, default, rewrite append original query string anyway.

you can either rewrite uri begins /l/ or create location /l/, example:

rewrite ^/l/ /lab/file.php last;

or:

location ^~ /l/ {     rewrite ^ /lab/file.php last; }

the ^~ modifier makes prefix location take precedence on regex locations @ same level. see this document details.

in both cases, rewrite append original query string rewritten uri. see this document details.
