This was a proof of concept for my form submission note. I wanted to have nginx send back a response when it got some post data. I would have loved to have returned the post data itself but for some reason request_body was blank and I didn't want to dig into it.
Regardless, returning just a string worked perfectly!
server {
...
location /some-endpoint {
if ($request_method = POST ) {
add_header Content-Type text/plain;
return 200 'Processed!';
}
}
}
This block simply returns back some text if it receives a POST request.
