Fastcgi cache based on header

Server NGINX
1

Hello,

Is there by any chance a way make something like this?

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ @fallback;
fastcgi_pass app;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/$fastcgi_script_name;
include base/fastcgi_params;

 if ($http_app_cache = "1") {
 fastcgi_cache landingpage;
 fastcgi_cache_key $http_host$request_uri;
 fastcgi_cache_valid 200 2m;
 fastcgi_cache_valid 404 1m;
 fastcgi_cache_valid 500 1m;
 fastcgi_cache_use_stale updating error timeout invalid_header

http_500;
fastcgi_ignore_headers Expires Cache-Control;
}
}

Can you try this?

 location / {
      if ($http_app_cache = "1") {
           try_files $uri $uri/ @fallback;
           fastcgi_pass app;
           fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME

$document_root/$fastcgi_script_name;
include base/fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_cache landingpage;
fastcgi_cache_key $http_host$request_uri;
fastcgi_cache_valid 200 2m;
fastcgi_cache_valid 404 1m;
fastcgi_cache_valid 500 1m;
fastcgi_cache_use_stale updating error timeout
invalid_header http_500;
fastcgi_ignore_headers Expires Cache-Control;

          break;
      }

      try_files $uri $uri/ @fallback;
      fastcgi_pass app;
      fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME

$document_root/$fastcgi_script_name;
include base/fastcgi_params;
}

Cheers,

this won’t work as well because try_files is not allowed in an if
statement

any other suggestions?

This works Maxim, thanks!

}

Something like this should work:

 location / {
     error_page 403 = @cache;

     if ($http_app_cache = "1") {
         return 403;
     }

     try_files $uri $uri/ @fallback;
     fastcgi_pass ...
     ...
 }

 location @cache {
     try_files $uri $uri/ @fallback;
     fastcgi_pass ...
     fastcgi_cache ...
     ...
 }
