Nginx Location block to Symfony path

Question

Daft question

We have a symfony-app example.com root would be /home/example/public_html/web

In the symfony-app we have a location path of example.com/tools/

We wanted to setup some restrictions to this location block in Nginx

but everything we've tried doesn't seem to map?

is it possible to do this in nginx or does it have to be done in symfony?

basic rules like

location ~ /tools {
  deny all;
}

have no effect at all on example.com/tools

Return a response too:

location ~ /tools {
    deny all;
    return 403;
}

You can add a restriction by the ip-address - just allow the local query and for others deny, like there:

location ~ /tools {
  allow 127.0.0.1;
  deny all;
}
