Location endpoint for specific method(s) using proxy_pass?

david.richardson

I'm building an api server and need

location /api {
proxy_pass http://upstream/...
}

for PUT requests only, another for DELETE requests.

proxy_pass seems to be disallowed inside any conditional directives.

Suggestions on the simplest way to do this?

An common solution is to use separate (internal) locations and use
"internal redirects" to jump to the right location from the entry
location.

I had assumed the answer would be something like that.

My initial reluctance with this approach was an increase in verbosity.

It's also probably time to look more closely at the framework for building APIs that was posted here several days ago.
