nginx config for the server (the main nginx one is the default one on debian 9):

server {

    listen 80;



    server_name subdomain.domain.com;

    include  /etc/nginx/mime.types; 

    location /galleries {

        autoindex on;

        alias /srv/galleries/;

    }

    location / {

        include uwsgi_params;

        uwsgi_pass unix:/tmp/scraper.sock;

    }

}

uwsgi config:

[uwsgi]

module = wsgi:app



master = true

processes = 5



socket = /tmp/scraper.sock

chmod-socket = 777

uid = www-data

gid = www-data

vacuum = true



die-on-term = true

plugins = python3

py-autoreload = 1

If I try creating a route for /galleries/whatever, ie like this:

@app.route("/galleries/whatever")

def test():

    return "Hello"

I'll just see the indexed files inside /galleries/whatever through nginx instead of going through flask.

Is there a way for me to force nginx to only handle requests if flask returns 404? Alternatively, is there a better way for me to serve files while still having them available under those urls? Keep in mind the /galleries folder is pretty big and generated by another program.

I run the server with "uwsgi --ini server.ini" and nothing else.
