I have thousands of text files named like ABC
. I'd like to access those files from different URL:
– if it is ABC
or ABC.txt
I'd like to add default_type text/plain
and serve that file
– if it is ABC.html
I'd like to add default_type text/html
and serve that file
(so that I have two different versions of the same file).
Is it possible to do that in nginx? The fact that one url could only be matched with one location
directive causes me trouble in finding a "clean" way.

You should try to create a separate location for each file extension and use a internal redirect. It'll be something like that:
I don't promise it'll work because I have not tested it on a real nginx.
