$skip_cache define home page

Server NGINX

I understand how to skip cache on cookies, POST, query strings, urls
containing string etc

But how do you define the home page itself in $skip_cache please?

Don’t cache uris containing the following segments

if ($request_uri ~*
“/wp-admin/|/xmlrpc.php|wp-.*.php|/feed/|index.php|sitemap(_index)?.xml”)
{
set $skip_cache 1;
}

the root website page http://www.mysite.com/

I guess another way of asking my question “How do I define bypass
fastcgi
cache on a page with no url string, ie: the root website page?”

If that works, then

if ($request_uri = “/”) {
set $skip_cache 1;
}

should work the same way.

location = / {
# the configuration here is for the root website page
}
