How to write nginx rewrite rule to catch /static in relative path

Question

I want to rewrite following URLs. There can be several paths before static. So I want to remove all of them and just get the url starting with /static

*/static/js/52.eebbab07.chunk.j
someurl/subpath1/subpath2/static/js/52.eebbab07.chunk.j

to this

/static/js/52.eebbab07.chunk.j

How can I do that?

How about:

rewrite /static/(.*)$ /static/$1 last;

The rewrite directive allows to capture trailing part of URI after /static, and the substitution (second argument) can use it as $1.

Yeah, how about? Does that resolve the given problem? Please add some explanation to your answer such that others can learn from it – Nico Haase Jan 21 '21 at 09:53
This is correct but needs to change `last --> break` to stop looping – Pubudu Jayasanka Jan 24 '21 at 13:05
