I have a mass virtual hosting setup, all sites have the same config
and will be served with server_name * (wildcard). The config is very
simple, just serving some static files. I want to keep the Nginx
boxes as simple and light as possible -- no FastCGI, no database.
Some domains will simply be an alias to another domain. I know that
for one or two domains, you could simply do a rewrite from
ALIASDOMAIN.com/(.*) to REALDOMAIN/$1, but our situation is more
dynamic and we can't update the config file all the time.
Is there as way to have:
docroot/
realdomain.com/
[content]
aliasdomain.com/
aliased_to
where aliased_to is a text file containing the real domain?
Or what about:
docroot/
realdomain.com/
[content]
aliasdomain.com/
aliasto_realdomain.com
Something like that?
In apache mod_rewrite I would do this using maps, but my Nginx skills
are weak!
Use map, http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpMapModule
http {
map $http_host $root {
realdomain.com realdomain.com;
aliasdomain.com realdomain.com;
...
}
server {
locaiton / {
root /docroot/$root;
...
}
}
}
