nginx rewrite: add index.php

Question

how do I do a rewrite in nginx from

http://www.example.com (with or without trailing slash)

to add index.php at the end?

For the example above the result should be

http://www.example.com/index.php

No special rules, just one domain to change.This should be simple but I can't seem to figure it out :-(

Thanks!

Assuming you mean you want the user's address bar to change, you just need one extra location in your server block:

location = / {
  return 301 http://www.example.com/index.php;
}
