How do I redirect example.com to example.com/#/ using nginx?

Question

I am using Angular Ui-Router in my web app. Right now I have to use example.com/#/ to access this. How do I redirect users from example.com to example.com/#/ in Nginx?

The solution is to use two server block in your nginx config file [like this][1] [1]: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10294481/how-to-redirect-a-url-in-nginx — aitnasser, Dec 31 '15 at 22:08

I think that should be purely client-side. Your webserver will serve the user index.html which bootstraps the Angular application.
In your application, you'll have to configure a redirect from "" and "/" to your desired route.

This example below will redirect the user from example.com to example.com/#/home.

  angular
    .module('home', ['ui.router'])
    .config(function ($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
      $urlRouterProvider.when('', '/home');
      $urlRouterProvider.when('/', '/home');
    });
