How redirect dynamic subdomain to a domain with uri

Question

I have this scenario. I want to redirect in nginx all subdomains in this format.

(profile_name).mydomain.com mydomain.com/profile/(profile_name)

How can I do this in nginx?

Thanks.

You could use a regular expression server block.

server {
    server_name ~^(?<name>.+)\.example\.com$;
    return 301 http://example.com/profile/$name$request_uri;
}

See this document for details.
