Question

In Nginx, how can I rewrite all http requests to https while maintaining sub-domain?

I want to rewrite all HTTP requests on my webserver to be HTTPS requests, I started with the following:

server {

    listen      80;



    location / {

      rewrite     ^(.*)  //mysite.com$1 permanent;

    }

...

One Problem is that this strips away any subdomain information (e.g., node1.mysite /folder), how could I rewrite the above to reroute everything to https and maintain the sub-domain?

https redirect nginx

here is the correct code:



server {

       listen         80;

       server_name    my.domain.com;

       return         301 https://$server_name$request_uri;

}



server {

       listen         443 ssl;

       server_name    my.domain.com;

       # add Strict-Transport-Security to prevent man in the middle attacks

       add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000" always; 



       [....]

Within the server block you can also do the following:



# Force HTTPS connection. This rules is domain agnostic

if ($scheme != "https") {

    rewrite ^ https://$host$uri permanent;

}
