php - Converting .htaccess files to nginx

one text

Solution:

Try this:

server {
    server_name example.com;
    root /path/to/files;
    charset utf-8;
    rewrite (.*) /public/$1;
    location /public/ {
        try_files /public$uri /public$uri/ /public/index.php?$uri$is_args$args;
    }
}

ALTHOUGH, by the looks of it, you simply need your root directive set to public and disrespect your "bad" .htaccess. This will be a lot cleaner/more secure also:

server {
    server_name example.com;
    root /path/to/files/public;
    charset utf-8;
    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$uri$is_args$args;
    }
}
