how to reverse proxy via nginx a specific url?

Question

I have a server running at http://localhost:8080 i want a specific url of this server to be proxied by nginx.

For example, i only want http://localhost:8080/test/(.*) to be reverse proxied to http://localhost/test/(.*).

I'm proxing another server to http://localhost/.

How to achieve this via Envoy Reverse Proxy? Like say we want to redirect requests coming from example.com:3443/node-exporter/metrics to localhost:9001/metrics. How does one go about this? — rylp

What about just a simple location block?

server {
    # ... other stuff

    location /test/ {
        try_files $uri @testproxy;
    }

    location @testproxy {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $server_name;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        # all your params
    }
}

I made it somehow this way and it worked. Thanks for your comment anyway. :)

server {
    listen 80;
    # ... other stuff

    upstream backend1 {
        server 127.0.0.1:8080;
    }

    location /test/ {
        proxy_pass_header Server;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
        proxy_pass http://backend1/test/;
    }
}
