If you prefer execution of the listed order, the you should use regex locations
only:
location ~ ^/media/files/.+\.mp4$ {
add_header X-Location-MP4 Served-from-MP4-location;
}
location ~ ^/media/files/ {
add_header X-Location-Order First;
}
location ~*
\.(ico|png|jpg|jpeg|gif|flv|mp4|avi|m4v|mov|divx|webm|ogg|mp3|mpeg|mpg|swf|css|js)$
{
add_header X-Location-Order Second;
}
However this approach is not scaleable. Suppose you have hundreds of locations,
then you have
to find appropriate place where to add a new location and have to investigate
the whole large
configuration to understand how this tiny change will affect the configuration.
The other approach is to use prefix locations and to isolate regex location
inside prefix ones:
location / {
location ~*
\.(ico|png|jpg|jpeg|gif|flv|mp4|avi|m4v|mov|divx|webm|ogg|mp3|mpeg|mpg|swf|css|js)$
{
add_header X-Location-Order Second;
}
}
location /media/files/ {
add_header X-Location-Order First;
location ~ \.mp4$ {
add_header X-Location-MP4 Served-from-MP4-location;
}
}
With this configuration you can sort the first level prefix locations in any
order.
