I'm serving Angular 2 application with nginx using location section this way:
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html =404;
}
try_files directive tries to find the requested uri in root directory and if it fails to find one it simply returns index.html
How to disable caching of index.html file?
Found a solution using nginx named locations:
location = / {
add_header Cache-Control no-cache;
expires 0;
try_files /index.html =404;
}
location / {
gzip_static on;
try_files $uri @index;
}
location @index {
add_header Cache-Control no-cache;
expires 0;
try_files /index.html =404;
}
